PSP 1000 vs PSP 2000 vs PSP 3000
by Oana Pelineagra | February 12, 2009
 The Play Station Portable, widely known as PSP, was developed by Sony Computer Entertainment, and is a game console with robust multi-media capabilities. The latter function makes it appealing to millions of game addicts, that in exchange of 130$ (more or less) receive a game tool and a little more.
The PSP has managed to detach itself from the major competitor - Nintendo - thanks to its superior design, smooth finish and multimedia characteristics (audio, video). Right now, 3 PSP models are available on the market: 1000 (the original one ), 2000 (widely called Slim&Lite) and 3000. Moreover, rumor has it that another PSP will be released in 2009: PSP 4000.
If in the past we tackled the differences between PSP and Nintendo, let's now see more clearly what are the similarities and differences between the three PSP models: 1000, 2000, 3000.
