Travel Technology - What do you have on your PSP when traveling?

I just bought a PSP this weekend and LOVE it! The screen resolution is amazing, I had heard it was similar to PS2 as far as gaming, in my opinion it may be better. I also bought a 1GB card that was on sale ($20 off at Target).

I was wondering what others have placed on their PSP for short/long travel? Obviously it's for photos, games, and video as well, but have others watched TV shows? Have you transfered purchased DVD's to watch on the PSP? Do you use the PSP for mostly pics and video, and use an ipod for only music?

Does anyone use it for wi-fi access in any of the lounges? And what kind of battery life have you got out of it on long flights (manual says 3-6).

Is there a program where you can run office files on it? Has anyone used the PSP for any type of business presentation?

Thanks

I personally use it for games and TV. Basically use my capture card and record TV on my computer and then use PSP video 9 to transfer. You can find the software online and it is free. Works very well, the only issue is that it will take some time to translate the avi/mpeg files to a codec that PSP can play. You should be able to fit a couple of hours on your 1GB card depending on the quality you select.

if you want to run office files on a PSP.. then I think it's time for a laptop.

My PSP is only letting me play Madden. All other games crash. The good news is that the Chargers have won the last two Super Bowls, and are 6-0 in 2007! ^

I have my Nano for music, and play DVD's on my laptop. Everything has its purpose.

I use my PSP for games, and I too have a 1 GB memory card of which I have about half of it filled right now with assorted TV show episodes and SNL skits that I like...Ive tried the wi-fi feature out here on campus, and had mixed results...it doesnt really like memory-intensive webpages, but I was able to browse through the various Yahoo! sites with relative ease...a keyboard peripheral would be a great addon, I hope someone comes out with one!

I use the psp for games and that's about it. I use my phone for videos or movies and my mp3 player for music. I sold my 1gb memory stick before I got my psp and don't feel like buying another one.
