Woohoo!!!

Got the PSP. I got the money for Christmas, but I had to endure the mall yesterday to pick the bad boy up. Even though one can find *relatively* okay prices for 2 GB memory sticks at Amazon and elsewhere, I couldn't wait so I bought a 1GB memory stick for $99. Also bought GTA: Liberty City Stories, perhaps the only game I will need for a while. I never finished GTA 3, but playing this game for a few minutes, driving around made me feel like I'd returned to a familiar neighborhood.

I converted some videos using this tutorial. Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex episodes 9 and 10, Macross Zero 1 and 2, trailers for Mission Impossible 3 and Exodus. Two videos by Bloc Party; Banquet and Helicopter, one by Sevendust; Ugly and some PSP ready trailers from CPM.

I transferred music from Bloc Party, Prince (unreleased out-takes), Damien Marley, Best Of Kool And The Gang 1969-1976 did not go through probably due to the memory being full (this is for all intents and purposes NOT THE SAME BAND who gave us songs like Misled, Victory and other crap from the eighties) and this possibly brilliant cat named Nadir whom I first heard on Adam Curry's podcast the other day. Check out his song Slave on his website.

Also read an article about reading manga on the PSP
. Tried it with MPD Psycho and so far I'm not impressed. I may need to be more familiar with navigating through graphics, but so far I don't like it. I do like being able to transfer text to jpegs (same article just mentioned) so that I can take lengthier articles with me when necessary.

All in all, this is gonna be a fun toy to play with.
