“Dear Valued Customer, To thank you for being a part of the Peet's family, you've been chosen as one of the first to receive a Peet's eCup. (…)

I'm sick (or 90% of the way there). This morning, my taste left the building - and I've been phlegmy for most of the afternoon. I'm sicky poo. (…)

I've been waiting for Sony to release an official PSP Media Manager for some time now, and I have a few initial thoughts after purchasing, downloading, and using it:

The UI is extremely slow, worse than Java on-screen

The UI is clean, intuitive, smart, easy

No software update feature (that I can find)

Feed management is rudimentary, but decent

Auto-backup feature is very nice

At $20, it's a decent deal, but *SHOULD* ship with PSPs

Better than most of today's PSP managers

Gracenote integration is very nice with built-in MP3 ripping

Cool feeds is missing our show

You can't right-click anything (very annoying)

You can't refresh feeds upon connection

File format conversion options appear to be sufficient

PSPWare does Bookmarks, PSP Media Manager doesn't

Known issues is missing a few blatant issues

I like PSPWare's price and speed much more, but it still relies on iTunes (which I don't have installed on my main machine). (…)
