Easily sorted...

I'll pay P&P and you bubble wrap the PSP as good as you can. I'll then test the wifi capabilities on my wireless router and report back to the good people of neowin on my findings,

Then after a day or two of testing you will recieve your PSP back in bubble wrap in the exact same condition with fresh battery, charged and i'll even clean the screen for you.

I look forward to your PM  :woot:

If indeed it's wet, windy wales then sometime in March. Game have started taking peoples names for an initial preorder list, similar to what they did with the PS2.

Unfortunaly thats not gonna get you a machine, all they do with that list is call you when they start taking deposits. Only when you put down a deposit with them, then you will have a machine on order.

That's why I said "similar to the PS2", I had to put my name down on an initial list at which point they contacted me telling me to come in and preorder. At which point there was absolutely tonnes of people queing up to preorder. But at least you get some warning.

Nice review. I'll be getting my media player for the GBA and testing it out on my DS. Hopefully I'll be getting a review up on my site soon. But I want one of those now! :(

Heh, I make quite a bit of moolah myself but I'm saving up right now for school and a car. I don't think I can support two handheld consoles now :unsure:

Cheers!

Well there is no online play at the moment, the PSP connects to my wireless router easily though and the firmware update option in the menu connects to Sony of Japan but quickly lets you know you are running the latest OS. I have played Ridge Racers with a buddy of mine in the same room on his PSP and we get roughly about 2 hours of play from a fully charged battery with the WIFI switch on.

Yeah, was just saying in a little more detail just incase someone who read this and didnt pre-order a ps2 knows what when on .. god that was a incrediably anal pre-order campaign. Still remember getting people to fill out forms at 6am.

Im still debating a jap machine but me funds are not on my side atm, just bough new mobo !

It appears Sony is using a cheaper Samsung LCD screen in the newer PSP's. The original "launch shipment" had a Sharp screen.

Sharp: sharp ;), vivid colors and a good viewing angle

Samsung: blueish worse colors and a bad viewing angle

Kinda sucks...

      VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2. Download: VidCoder 12.20 | 47.0 MB (Open Source) Download: Portable VidCoder 12.19 | 89.3 MB Link: VidCoder Home Page | Github | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary to compete against AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update bug that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
