My wife wants one of these BADLY, I dunno, though...
It looks like a beauty of a powerhouse, for sure, but what about the downloading/'Sony Store' aspects? Maybe I dont fully grasp the stats, but doesnt it lack any sort of disc/cart port? ...Doesnt it operate on totally 'downloadable content'?
Not sure if I'm ready to plunk down for it, just yet...
Whats the price of this latest PSP? ...I'm assuming $200-$300?

I've read the entire thread, and I wanna straighten some things out
- The prices for the Vita are $250 for the wifi version, and $300 for the 3G, which will be carried on a data plan by AT&T in the US and by it's Canadian affiliate Rogers.
-I have a Photoflash microSD to PRO DUO adapter, and it has never worked, even on reformated microSD's.
-The Vita uses the Memory Stick micro, NOT the PRO DUO. Same price, but different size.
-The Vita also uses a new SD card-sized cartridge format. You can see a sketch of it on it's Wikipedia page.
And on the topic of this thread, I think hackers should go at it from day 1, but should wait to report anything and lull dumb Sony into believing they made a hack-proof system, then release their findings.
Hope I helped.

Even if Sony tries to fix the exploit, they'll probably make another flaw that will be easy to exploit anyway. It never seems to fail with their systems; they end up hacked apart eventually.
Anyway, even if it does end up easily hacked, I'm not picking one up until some of the games I've been eyeballing get English releases.

Everything is hacked apart eventually... if enough people bother to look at it.

I see this thing fetching $400+ on E-Bay - WTF?! Hoping that these prices reflect the fever-pitch 'newness' mentality, 'cause at $400 for a portable, thats feckin insane...
I can grab various PSP models at $30-$70 a pop, so at over $400, this 'Vita' device had better be equipped to make me a hot breakfast and give me a handy-j .......wow....

Well I know for a fact I am not getting 3G. Rogers loves ripping people off. I remember when the announced at E3 that in the states it the plan would be carried by AT&T and I heard a few silent groans.
I really don't know about the Vita anymore. It looks cool and all but I am looking at it from a marketing stand point and I just don't find that huge amounts of people will dish out money for a download only console. Especially not parents, which to mention the DS was so successful because of it's accessibility, of course the 3DS has similar problems.
I feel like Vita will be a more successful PSP GO.
I guess I should explain why find that the downloading is the problem. Okay chances are they will have a points system and they will have the credit card option. I have the choice of taking my time to go to a store to go by a card come back type the code and wait for a download(depending on the internet speed it can take a while or it wont) or I can give my credit card information, but fear another hack like the last one which, I just can't trust a company that won't handle such a situation maturely and responsibly.
Not only that, I don't quiet understand their download system but the games sound extremely easily to pirate. But hey they might of done something(Hackers will find a loophole).
I guess my arguments are kinda ridiculous but these are ridiculous opinions xP.

It's not a download only console. It has two card slots, one for save files, music and video (like PSP) and one for games (like NDS).
IMMA HUNTIN' MAH MONSTAHS
I was about to say YEESH~
And then I saw the "it's probably psp stuff running on the vita"
Then I was "dun' care, it'll probably help hack it later"
and then I saw the freezing problem, and was like "... I hope they lower the price for this..."
Anyways, don't care whatever disgrace befalls the vita, I'm getting one just because it's sony, and there'll be the exclusives waiting for me.
And also, there's a "multiuse" port. No way there won't be a usb cable to transfer images and music to the storage media BESIDES taking it away and plugging it at the pc.
... Btw, is there any micro memory stick adapter to micro sd?

-PSVITA- Traditional, mostly an accessory :c
-PS4- Deliciouser
-PS3- black 2501A 160gb, some version of Rebug
-PS2- Retired, also functional but ps3 is doing the hard labor
-PC- Dead, but damn, my new phone and some lame laptops are doing the trick for now
Who knows when there'll be a new update...?
