Actually, I'm thinking a PSP would be best for your needs. Because as far as I know iPods don't have wi-fi.

No wi-fi on iPods. If you want movies, get an iPod with video. If you want mainly games, get a PSP. Of the two, I find that I use my iPod in the car and for exercising, and I use my PSP to waste time. Unfortunately, a PSP will require UMD discs, so it will have an ongoing expense.

I have a psp, and thats true when I want to watch a movie I have to buy the umd or buy a huge(and expensive) memory card for it. The Ipod Video looks cool but are watching movies "worth it" on that small screen ? What about products like those archos things that have like 20 gb and thats all they are used for ?

ANy info would be great....

Thanks

Malcolm

I love Ipods. I don't know if I'd get anything but an Ipod. However, if I had the extra cash I'd get one of these - Creative Zen vision
