    I'd say you'd be very lucky if you found anywhere cutting the prices at Christmas...

    be careful if you really want one before Christmas.
    Remember the huge shortages on PS2s a fea years ago?
    I know there was one regarding chip shortages, but they may schedule a supply not big enough and will love all the hype and press they'll get over customers running around looking for PSPs.
    I doubt prices will be cut before Christmas... more likely after Christmas in the new years sales if anything.

    I was hard pressed getting mine at all; they're selling like hotcakes and I went around a load of shops in town on Friday before I finally found somewhere that sold them (only to get one with about fifty bright pixels :mad: ), then returned it, got a new one checked it in the store and didn't see anything wrong, but I've seen it in a dark room this evening and there's one bright pixel :(

    Anyway, yeah, buy one now or you may get it in the shorts coming up to Christmas.

    Ther fact is that at the moment they are probably selling at a loss. Not only that but there is no competition so the prices won't come down for a year or so. Even if they do thats only a few quid you'll save insteads of having a psp now.

    Wait until after christmas. I seriously doubt that Sony will drop the price especially when Chrimbo is a perfectly good oppurtunity to fleece the public with over priced duo memory sticks and the PSP is currently selling at a loss.

    Yeah I got my ps2 afterchristmas when they came out and it was far cheaper.
