Seriously? What's the big deal about a mediocre camera being "late"? It's not like there's any EyeToy games out yet on the PSP where you can use it. It's one of those things that might be nice to have, but I'd never go out of my way to get it. I mean, what are you going to do with it until games come out that use it? Take snapshots? Okay, but most current cell phones have a camera at least as good and most of us are already carrying phones around anyway. Cell phone wins, IMHO, because the camera is integrated and has similar image quality and I've always got my phone with my anyway. With the phone, there's no bulky add-on items that attach to a somewhat bulky game system only to snag on things when you try to take it out of your pocket.



Until games or video conferencing tools come out for the PSP camera, there's just no real point in having it, so why get bent out of shape about it.



Now, as for why it's being delayed, I'd hope it was because they are developing some sort of integrated flash on the thing if the PSP can provide enough power via the USB connection, that is. Cameras like this are all but useless in anything but ideal lighting. A flash would be biggest on my wish list for such a device, but it would likely raise price too much on something like this and make it even more bulky than it already is. My camera phone doesn't include a flash, but I've seen some that do, so maybe it's possible...

i could care less about the camera as well, but the PSP a flop? That's far from true. I own 20 psp games, play all of the all of the time, and its a blast. I can't decide what games to get next, because I have another 10-15 more games I am interested in. I DO NOT own a DS though, because I looked up the games online, tried them out at stores and from friends who had them, and thought they weren't any fun at all and not worth the money. Some people like NES games, some people like Playstation games, and some like both.. After n64, Nintendo just hasn't been fun anymore for me..
