My DS from Dad's employee sales program is working great.

On the PSP, we read about E3. A few of the other problems:

-overheating--enough to burn
-Not even that far off of the drawing board--to make it work at E3, it was hooked up to a PC.
-Discs easily scratchable

Just a few interesting facts.

Headphones, with a low-intensity game, got 5 hours. No headphones, with heavy gameplay, got 3 hours.
