No case. OK, so I got the base pack, but even with a case I'd be very worried about taking it anywhere. A clamshell screen is so much safer.
Have you seen the logitech cases like this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000A4385K ?

They're quite easy to find, and also pretty robust looking.
Hmm, more expense to counteract the whole "free" business. :)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/5209346.stm

Figures earlier this month showed that in 2005, Nintendo sold 2.6 million units of its handheld DS Lite and a further 1.3 million of the original DS.
They must be pleased, selling 2.6 million units in 2005 considering it was released in March 2006!
Now corrected, all thanks to meeeee!

And her big presents.

Some of the animals have really rubbish animation, but I think Bluebear and Pudge have great expressions. The rabbits all look stupid.

It's the same as the Nintendo network!

"Sony will tomorrow launch its PlayStation Portable-oriented Wi-Fi hotspot network, though with only 11 sites, perhaps 'network' isn't the right word, particularly given the 7,500 hotspots that are part of rival Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connection for the DS."

Hardly. :P

Hardly. :P
When I said "same as" the Nintendo network, I meant in the context of "is" - or at least part of it - which I thought was quite funny. Looking at the story linked to from the main story, it looks like it'll be based around "retail outlets" like McDonalds, around which I don't spend much time hangin'.

Seeing as there's only one person on the board interested in it though, I didn't spend too much time on the wording ;)

Trouble is, the PSP isn't portable enough to take out of the house, let alone to McD's. :o
