| Re: PSP?
It's an expensive gadget to be sure. Some have claimed it's gaining momentum, but the Nintendo DS's popularity is still much higher. The graphics for it are better, and it has the ability to play videos/music/etc. It just depends on how tech-savvy your son is. If he loves computers and would know how to use the PSP to its full advantage, it'd be a great gift. But if it's just the "in" thing that he wants, I'd look into a Nintendo DS, which has the better games in my opinion.
I think age has a lot to do with it, too. If he's young, he would probably end up liking a DS more, but if he's in junior high or older, a PSP would be better. The PSP has more titles geared for an older audience, but does have a couple of kid-friendly platformers and several good racing games to choose from.
