you can get a definite one (and a little cheaper) from themarques as he mentioned earlier he has one more left which he can send from japan. it was in MikLSP's PSP discussion thread

Wow this thread has been busy, well I wait to hear what you guys think of your new toys. I was out and about catching up on the latest toys..

@Masseur Your order was for Ridge Racers and Metal Gear Acid.

Renguku is pretty cool, I will be maxing it out on the plane and will give you all and update when I get back in London.

P.s I have one more PSP if anyone is feeling generous to give a family member.

If u read my PSP Discussion thread you'll see that thes Japanese PSPs have several advantages including being region free which the UK model may not be.
Take a look, there's lots of info in that thread

I got my PSP from www.electricbirdland.co.uk yesterday. It was Ł249.99, the cheapest price I can find in the Uk. What swung it for me was the 12 month warranty and that they check every unit for dead pixels. I'm well pleased with my PSP. RIdge racer is amazing and i can';t fault it.

I got some games from Liksang and they were delivered within a few days hoever I got stung with a bill from customs and a charge from UPS so it would have been cheaper for me to get them from the UK.
