Well if you read my first post properly, you would realise that I said that some people had their PSPs dispatched on the 30th, meaning that there would be a chance that they would have got here today. Yeah that didn't happen but thats hindsight for you.

Ooh nice, where do you work? I have heard from peeps that Sony doesn't want any pre-midnight sales and thus bosses have warned they'll have the balls of anyone who lifts one early.

No probs, get some sleep it'll be all better tomorrow. If you /are/ getting a PSP that is... [/fanboy]

Oh and a heads up everyone, www.yourpsp.com is up and running, register your PSP and you can get Spiderman 2, also a few downloads are available like the first Gamma Pak for Wipeout. I'll update the first post...
 
Is anyone going to try registering their Jap or US PSP with www.yourpsp.com to see what happens ? I suspect that the offer wont apply and you'll no doubt get some interesting message from Sony to the effect of you dont have a UK PSP so you arent eligible to use this service.

*edit* Actually if you read under the help section with regards to sign up, it states that you can register a PSP bought abroad as long as you are resident in a PAL country. Maybe a sneaky way of Sony to get an idea of how many imported PSP's are out there. Im going to sign up tonight and see what happens.

Oooh that sounds cool. Would be a bonus if those who imported could sign up too. Let us know if it works!

Wouldn't be much use beyond the El Spid DVD though I'd think, are the download paks for games localised for the game versions?

Already done it and it worked. It will be interesting to see if I get Spiderman 2 or not.
 
I signed up with my jap psp as soon a i saw the post about yourpsp.com thinking its worth a try. I choose psp-1004 as the model type though as they didn't have psp-1000, from the serial number they'll probably know its a jap psp but i'm hoping it works.
 
i signed up my USA psp, it worked fine. I entered psp-1003 as the model type. I dont think sony can do anything about this, its probably in their best interests now to get as many people on board now, regardless of where it was bought. they sent me a mail saying i should receive my pack soon.

Don't you USA PSP people already have Spiderman 2 though? Or was that just the first batch? Useful info anyway, keep us updated if it arrives.

The first 1000 USA psps had spiderman 2 UMD in it, the ones that followed did not. I got spiderman 2 of that famous auction site for a fiver anyway. I know the UMD i will receive from sony (if i get the pack) will be region 2 and will not work in my psp, but im interested to see what else this pack contains.

Unless you wanted to upgrade your firmware - which I am guessing is how they do the regional coding - I would be surprised ( but not overly so) if this was hardware based
