You know it as the ultimate handheld gaming system—the place to play the very best in portable games. You may even know that the PSP® (PlayStation® Portable) system can do a bunch of other things as well. The thing is, once you've held all this in the palm of your hand, you won't ever be the same. The PSP® system has a boatload of talents, including:

* Gaming
Over 350 titles—and more coming all the time
* Video
More than 460 feature films, TV programs and music videos available on UMD™ disc (each sold seperately)
* Music
It plays MP3s, WAVs, WMAs, ATRAC3+ and MP4s
* Photo
Create a slide show of your photos or beam them to friends via Wi-Fi
* Network
Communicate with other PSP® systems, play games online, browse the Web and more
* RSS
Stay up-to-the-minute with your fave blogs, podcasts and news feeds

The PSP® system's game list already includes the ultimate in portable games, hands down. Pretty much any kind of game you've heard of. The game is definitely on with new offerings from fan faves like God of War ®: Chains of Olympus, Pursuit Force™: Extreme Justice and MLB 08 The Show™ plus cool all-new stuff like Patapon™, Wipeout: Pulse™ and more. The variety of games should keep you busy, and the variety of ways to play means the game is on—whenever, wherever and however you say it is!

* Single–player gaming—Take your games on the go!
* Multiplayer gaming—Choose Infrastructure mode to play with people online, or Ad Hoc mode to play with nearby PSP® systems without an Internet connection.
* Game sharing—Share elements of your game with your friends even if they don't own the same game.
* Game downloads—Get your game on with free game downloads directly through your PSP® web browser at the official PSP® website.

Your PSP® is not playing games. OK, it's not playing games all the time; you can use it to do a ton of other cool (and highly useful) things when you're not in game mode. It beats carrying around a separate gadget to:

Watch movies and videos: If it's saved to your Memory Stick Duo™, you can play it on your PSP anywhere. Save a good movie or homemade video for a long ride or trip. Or while away the hours with one of the many UMD™ movies you can get for the PSP® system.

Show photos: Show off with a cool slide show of all your favorite digital pics or beam your photos via Wi-Fi to another PSP®.

Listen to music: Play your MP3s, WAVs, WMA and ATRAC3+ files, and MP4s on your PSP®. It's your handheld, personal background music to go.

Get online: Check your email on the go and keep up with the blogs, RSS, news feeds and podcasts you can't live without.

Download PSP® system movies, tv shows, games, demos, videos, themes and more from the PlayStation®Store* for the PSP® system. With a free PlayStation®Network account, you can access the PlayStation®Store on your PSP® system, or download Media Manager to download items from your PC and transfer to the PSP® system.

Wouldn't it be great if computers, gaming consoles, and mobile and electronic devices could all work together with no hassles? That's what Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) does. Thanks to the magic of DLNA, PSP® system owners who own a PLAYSTATION®3 can use Remote Play to access all the media on their PS3™ (music, pictures and more) via a hotspot. Plus, PSP® owners who have a PS3™ can also access all the content on their PC (such as movies, music, pictures). Compatibility is a good thing.

Firmware Updates
Sometimes a good thing gets better. Whenever a firmware update is issued for the PSP® system, you can download the update and add a little something extra to your PSP®, like:

TiVoToGo™
Introduce your PSP® system to TiVoToGo and watch recorded TV content (downloaded to your Memory Stick Duo™)—anywhere.

LocationFree® TV
Enjoy your favorite sporting events, TV shows, movies, live TV, DVR content or your DVD player content and more from the road with your PSP system and LocationFree TV! Connect your compatible TV, DVD player, DVR, Camcorder or PC to the LocationFree® Base Station and you can get hooked up from anywhere in the world via an accessible hotspot.

Internet Radio
Tune in to Internet Radio on your PSP® system (at an accessible hotspot) and start blasting your tunes wherever you are (OK, not too loud). Make sure that you've upgraded your PSP® to the latest firmware.

Skype™
Utilizing the built-in Skype™ functionality on your PSP® system, call your friends to come check out your skills. (You'll need to ensure that you've upgraded your PSP® to the latest firmware.)
