| Pros |
speed, wireless networking, bluetooth, media downloads |
| Cons |
web browser is bad, no PS2 compatibility, needs more expansion/peripheral/software options |
| Bottom Line |
Get it if you're SURE you like it. I trusted the literature/sales hype/street buzz more than my own test-driving, and that was MOSTLY a mistake! |

Key Features
Home consoles have the best graphics and require a connection to an outlet as a power source. They usually do not come with a viewing monitor included. Most allow multiplayer gaming and memory cards so you can save the game and resume later. Handheld consoles are battery powered and have a small color viewing screen. They allow you the freedom to play wherever you want, in the car, on the commute into work or at lunch time in the school yard.\r\n\r\n
