i havn't seen any good PSP games out. so i only see the PSP being useful as a small portable computer/media player.
so if i can't put custom apps on it, i'm not going to buy that ****.

and that survey is so biased and crappy, is that even real?

i just hate when a corporation limits our freedom. we buy the system, let us do what we want with it you corporate ****ers. you already take enough of our money as is, don't take our freedom away as well.
That's exactly what I was going to say until I saw your post and decided to just quote you instead of writing the same thing. For me, I had a choice to buy a GP2X or a PSP. I really wanted a PSP, but I decided to get a GP2X soley for the reason of having freedom with it. I wasn't looking foward to voiding the warranty if I bought a PSP and had to mess with the firmware or bricking the unit and whatnot, so that's why I went the GP2X route. Game Park knows what it's customers want, which is a shame because not many people know about the GP2X, which is a great little machine.

Where's the option in the survey that says, "I like to use my PSP to its fullest potential instead of using a small percentage of its capabilities"? That survey sucks, must be a fake. They should have an open forum for PSP owners to explain their reason to hacking their PSP and then Sony would really know what their customer's really want instead of making a BS survey that only makes the PSP user look like a thrill seeking criminal.

Good point, but being able to legally run emulators on it without having to risk the life of the PSP would definitely attract a broader customer range who isn't the casual gamer that doesn't goe out and buys modern games. Some people only like the older stuff, and having a handheld that allows emulators to be put on it is good enough for those people and would attract their business.
