Im going on holiday in july to florida for 2 weeks and i figure im going to need something to amuse me during the 13 hour flight and during the 2 weeks. im stuck between the psp and the DS.

ive got an ipod video so if i want to watch movies or listen to music, ill just use that, i guess im pretty much looking for a pure gaming machine.

i like fun little addictive puzzle games, just so that i dont get bored too easily, and also some good old retro ones like sonic.

it has to have a good battery life, as it will probably be in constant use during the flight.

what would your recommendation be?

You can probably get one VAT free from th eairport on the way out. I did that with a digital video camera on the way to new york and saved a couple of hundred quid from dixons at manchester airport

hmmm.... not sure if i would do that. i dont want to get one from america as that would involve getting UK chargers etc. and i dont want to go to the airport, find out i cant get one and then be without one for the trip. but i think i will definetly be going for the DS.

BUY TWO and have fun with wifi-multiplayer

another question. how does that work? do the DS' come with wifi transmitters and recievers? or do you need to use it with say a home wifi internet setup?

so if i took 2 to florida we wouldnt be able to play it unless the villa had a wifi setup?

So Marcus25. Made your mind up ??

yup, will definetly be the DS

will get it, may/june time.

do they do extra battery packs for the ds? dont want to get half way through the flight and run out of power, and revert to wordsearches and crosswords in cheap puzzle books!

i guess the whole stylus/touch screen interactivity has swung it for me, and the battery life.

oooh and speaking of battery packs, can get them from game for £5
