Umm, the PSP can take Memory Stick Duos.... That's pretty good connectivity-wise.

Well, as the PSP plays MP3's and MP4 Videos I guess you could transfer these to and from your P900...

Yes it does. I currently have the 512MB DUO I bought for my P910i inserted in the PSP.
Movie playback of MS is great with mp4's encoded at 320x240 30fps and about 700kbs rate.
Picture viewing & music playback is also great.
One awesome piece of kit (couldn't wait until next March at the earliest so imported!)
@aidanmack
Just tried sending a picture from P910 to the PSP & nothing. Not sure what the infra-red will be used for but doesn't appear to do anything yet.
Easily connected the PSP upto my wireless broadband router and it went on web to check it had latest firmware.
Not tried XLink tunneling for WiFi gaming yet.

What exactly is the PSP's Wifi for? What do you use it for?
And accdg. to gamespot.com, you'll have to rename the mp4 video before it plays in the PSP? Is there any hassle before being able to play a mp4 file in the PSP?

Sony sells a converter programme but only available via Japanese Sony Style website at the moment.
Another Japanese guy has made a freeware 3GP converter & just added English support. This creates an mp4 in PSP format & a thumbnail file which you just have to put in a specific directory you create called MP_ROOT.
Regarding WiFi. When linked to your Wireless broadband router it currently only searches the web to ensure it has the latest firmware. Eventually Sony will provide a gaming portal for network play as per PS2. For techies you can already do network play over the web using Xlink Tunneling software to connect to others around the world. Not tried it myself yet but one UK guy has successfully played Ridge Racers with a guy based in Japan!
Also, don't forget that if you have a mate or two with PSP within a few meters of each other you can network play with each other cable free directly via a WiFi Ad Hoc connection.
@mikLSP
The PSP is region free for games but of course only Japanes language games are available at the moment but Ridge Racers & Luminies are fairly easy to get around. Japan is Region 2 for DVD/UMD's so same as us in UK so should be fine all round.
Only bought as an import because of strong £ to $ rate but even so, for the Value Pack with VAT/Duty & p&p added it cost £330. Would expect the value pack to be about £225-250 when officially launched in UK (if standard pack ends up being £199).
Only have Ridge Racers at the moment with Luminies in post somewhere between UK & Honk Kong!
You don't realise what a high tech quality gadget it is until you actually get it. It really is as good as the pictures & hype. The screen in particular is "light years" ahead of any other hand-held game console I have seen/used.
