theres a guy on www.mkivsupra.net that can get them from Hong Kong, no supply problems out there, and a very good price as well.

apparently Sony have said all outstanding orders will be fulfilled by this saturday so it looks like a load of them might be coming in to the shops..
One of my team has been waiting 3 months for his from Game and is a bit fed up with it all. They are great bits of kit though and at £146 Im tempted to get one.

There were a load in stock at Tesco Brookfield Centre in Cheshunt last night. I don't know if it's the same in every tesco store but they've been out of stock as far as I know.

im currently in china, and have seen loads. just not sure on which one to go for?
the version 1.50 sounds the best, from wat i have been reading on the net? prices are around 1600yuan for a value pack
1pound=14 yuan
if i was to buy one out here, is it worth my while buying some games too? not sure on the language?? can u change the language settings in the games?
cheers

I've got a Ceramic White PSP Value Pack - Japanese market only and now sold out.
This was intended to be my only PSP, but I couldn't wait and bought a UK PSP while waiting...
The unopened PSP is now up for sale.
It'll be going on eBay soon.

Games at the moment are not region coded, so it should be possible to buy a psp anywhere and play games from anywhere on it. This may not always be the case, (especially with sony cracking down on imports etc), but they've shown no sign of enforcing it yet.
If you buy a Jap psp, it will be able to play UK movies because they are both region 2. If you buy a Chinese one, you'll only be able to play chinese movies.

Just because they are made in Japan, doesn't mean that they are encoded for Japan. They are manufactured in Japan for the chinese market (I think), using the chinese region code.
China is region 6, UK / Japan is region 2.

the region code will be displayed on the box wont it??? like dvd players are. have been offered a version 1.51, or a version 1.50 for less money. so if they are region 2 i will be betrter of wit the ver. 1.50. i did ask the seller if it was ok for use in england, and was told yes, but the language barrier is proving difficult

I don't know. I can't remember seeing the region code displayed on the box of mine. But then again. I wasn't actaully looking for it.
Not sure what the charger / electric socket connections are in China either. If you get one from there, you may have to buy a UK adapter as well.
Note that 1.50 is going to be only of temporary use. It's looking extremely likely that the next batch of games (GTA for example) are going to force you to upgrade to the latest 2.0+ firmware to be able to play the game, thus stopping you from being able to use any homebrew or pirated stuff.

i have read that somewhere already. but there is software to allow you to downgrade it back to ver 1.50. so for a couple of days you play GTA your on ver 2.0, then you wanna play some of the old classics again u downgrade to ver 1.5 again??? i will have to look on the boxes. i have been looking on the net and there are people that mention buying psps from china already.
