Sony quietly unveiled a new price drop on its PSP Go today, down to an MSRP of $149.99 from its previous price of $199.99. The new price slipped onto the official site, without an announcement to accompany it. Oddly, retailers don't seem to have gotten the memo yet, as most are still listing the old price.
This follows on the heels of a recent price drop on the standard PSP model to $129.99. That was a decrease of $40, so it makes sense that the PSP Go dropped $50 to match. Both seem to be preparing for the imminent launch of the Nintendo 3DS, and the eventual release of Sony's NGP.

I would never touch this, but at a price of $130 USD, I'm considering the original.

Or you could buy the 2000/3000, buy games that are on PSN, and yet still have the ability to play games off of UMD. Win-win!

Also I believe the PSP Go is the only model that supports pausing of PS1 classic games. (Kinda like a save state)
Lots of good plugins for the current hacks too.
Someone created a plugin that let's you play games in 3D with 3D glasses. (lol)
Theres a plugin that allows more than one game to be paused. Usually if you pause one game and try to pause another the previous pause state is deleted.

The Kingdom Hearts game last year was also fantastic.
And this year, we've gotten several solid titles too, including Tactics Ogre which is still sucking most of my game time, and Parasite Eve 3, Dissidia 2 and FF4 Complete coming in the next month and a half or so. -

Sony's support has been iffy, but I still love my Go. The form factor is a lot more practical, the pause feature is VERY handy, and the d-pad is much, much better than the standard. Of course, I still have my 1000 for UMD's - if I didn't have that, I'd probably go with the 3000, or track down a 2000 to avoid the "scanline" issue.

Can you put CFW on a Go?

I honestly love mine, but I'm playing lots of games through questionable means. Works great when you can just "not-download" anything, like Luminies which isnt even available on the store. I actually own most of the games on there, but I lost my PSP, and went with the go so i could just download everything I already bought....win win.

I'm tempted to buy one of these, mod it, load my UMD-based games on a memory stick so I can play them on it, pair a DualShock 3 w/ it, and play my stuff on my TV with a decent control setup for once.
Kind of holding out for it to hit $100/new. I'll probably buy two or three then. Gotta have backups. This kinda hardware doesn't last forever. :(-
Though not directly to the tv, you can do something similar with remotejoylite already. Plug it in to the computer, play it with a controller on whatever monitor/tv is hooked into it.
Requires more screwing around by far, but I've always liked remotejoylite more than the tv-out.

For $150 I am seriously considering this, but mostly just to play PS1 Classics.
