PSP Batteries

[owsf2000]

Normally they sell for about 40-50 bucks around here locally. So it wasn't that hard for me to decide to buy the last two batteries at Zellers the other day that they were selling for 20 each. One of them was a Stamina battery (2200mAh) while the other was one of the older standard batteries (1800mAh). With this, I can feel a bit more at ease with the PSP. Odds are the PSP itself will die before I run out of functional batteries.... which means I should see about getting a second PSP in the future!

I don't particularly like rechargeables since eventually you know it's going to die. This is one plus I had for the PSP (non-Go variants) since it has an easily replaceable battery. Sony would probably get me on the PS3 train a little easier if they had controllers that had easily replaceable batteries. (As it is, your PS3 controller is fit for the garbage when it's rechargeable battery no longer holds a charge. The instructions given for removal of the battery in the instruction manuals is for the purpose of recycling, not replacement. Essentially you're not likely, or expected, to get the controller back together afterwards.)

That might have been the case, but I'll keep it in mind whenever I need to switch the battery out. (Personally I'm hoping it'll be years before I have to worry about it!)
