    Can anyone answer these q's for me please ?

    How long does it take to convert a standard movie DVD to a format that's compatible with the PSP ?

    What would the average size of the PSP movie file be ?

    What capacity does the UMD hold ?

    Also, does anyone know if there are any PSPs to buy new with firmware Version 2.0 or less in Ireland ?

    Thanks !

    UMDs hold 1.8 GB... but I dunno why you'd ask that.

    you won't get a new v2.0 or lss in a shop in ireland. check the for sale section here or ebay.

    Depends on your processor. :)

    I have a dual core 3800+ and it takes around 20 minutes to do a 45 minute episode at absolutely maximum quality with just one core (equivalent to around a 3200+).
