PSP - Well made, time taken to design it etc.

DS - Why even bother??

I'd say the DS is well made, they put NEW things in it
and the PSP dost have anything new....

anyways....
NDS Portable Media Streamer.
Ever had a media file that was just too big to get onto your flash cart? Want a way to watch TV on the go without doubling the size of your system with a clunky TV tuner? Then you need the Portable Media Streamer!

This product will consist of two parts:
- Standard size Nintendo DS card with main program
- Standard size GBA cart containing RAM (for temporarily storing streamed content)
- PC software for sending media

To use this product, you insert the carts into the DS and boot it in DS mode. You install the PC software and select a media directory. The Portable Media Streamer is now ready to use!

It uses the DS' WiFi capabilities to communicate with your PC via the internet and stream media. You can browse available media on the DS and select a video, music or picture file to view, or (if your PC has a TV tuner) to watch TV. The DS communicates wirelessly with your PC and streams the media you choose. If you select a prerecorded media file stored on your PC, the software will buffer media ahead of the current playing position in case you go out of range of a wireless hot spot so that it keeps playing until you are in range of a hot spot again.

The product comes in 3 versions:

Silver - 32 MB of RAM in GBA cart
Gold - 64 MB of RAM in GBA cart
Platinum - 128 MB of RAM in GBA cart

The different amounts of RAM alters how long the media can continue
playing when you leave a wireless hot spot.

So, in summary, here's how it works:

V [PC with special software - videos, pictures, music on hard drive and TV tuner plugged in]
V [Internet connection on PC]
V [Wireless hot spot near DS allows DS to access PC over internet]
V [Media buffered into RAM in GBA cart]
V [Software on NDS card reads buffered media and plays back]

EDIT: I know the PSP has better graphics but no innovation really....

dude I didn't say I hated the PSP <_<
and Nintendo are trying to make a change in gaming rather than doing the same thing over and over and not adding anything new, and the DS's graphics are just above N64, and how the hell are the DS cards cheap? you think making games smaller is cheap? no its the power of technology.
And the PSP's did set on fire in Japan but thats been fixed.
Im not dissing the PSP because if it came out eairlier I would of got one....

Im not trying to start a fight Im just speaking IMO

I never said ds cards were cheap.
I said SD(SAN-DISC) THINK! AND READ!
