    I was about to buy a PSP-3000 but I found out an article which made me change my decision and I'll be buying the old n good PSP-2000. There's not much difference between these two except the "so-called" better screen and a microphone for skype in PSP 3000.

    This is a hardware issue and cannot be solved by firmware upgrade. So, I'd better go for the PSP-2000

    Here's the articles which helped me change my mind.

    Ooh... I really don't know about this. Maybe they will fix the issues in PSP-4000 version. :D

    I'm using PSP-1000 (fat PSP) and still can play the latest games without any problem.

    I am deciding between the new DSi and PSP 2000, I love PSP games but DS's touch screen just rocks :(

    get a DS or DSi, because there's much more game and much fun than PSP

    I don't know whether the new DSi is available in India or not. Anyways, I'll go with PSP 2000 and later buy DSi if it really interests me.
