We get the european delays, AND the european prices.  At the current exchange rate it looks like the PSP is entering the market at over 400 Aussie Dollars.<br><br><br>You can buy TWO Nintendo DS units for that price... and I think I might do that. Two units with the hope of multiplayer which I can use right now far exceeds one unit with no hope of finding a competitor until September!<br><br><br>And if it isn't insulting enough that we get the console late, we'll even get the game late, with all the shitty european multiple language selection which took them half a year to add to a game which we could have played perfectly well in English, seeing as it's the only official language here.<br><br><br>I love console manufacturers.<br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Trejkaz]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sony defends the delay of the PSP European launch]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/sony-defends-the-delay-of-the-psp-european-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/sony-defends-the-delay-of-the-psp-european-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oh, now I feel relieved. I was afraid if I go to the shop now to buy PSP I might have to wait a month or two to get it. Now I know that when in September I go the shop I'll get it right away and be happy to cash out more money than people few months ago for old PSP. Usually, as gadgets get older they get cheaper. So, the end result would be that I'm not buying it. It's way too old, too expensive and they'll anounce PSP2 probably couple of months later.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Eddie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:21AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Sony defends the delay of the PSP European launch]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/sony-defends-the-delay-of-the-psp-european-launch/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/05/18/sony-defends-the-delay-of-the-psp-european-launch/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't get it.
