Man I wish it were that. Since the profit margin is so large and the packaging so small, that wouldn't make much sense. What does? Keeping the highest card limited to force people to upgrade when space on their 8 GB rubs out.
yeah but how many of those average consumers will buy a $100 memory card? Let alone at launch?

This is just an FYI for people that have a Chase Freedom credit card, but I'm planning on using it to buy my Vita/games/accesssories from Amazon since for the 1st quarter of 2012 they are giving 5% cash back on all Amazon purchases.

Congratspulled the trigger today, damn Feb is gonna be expensive.

Congrats,
Amazon or what !?
I haven't spent a dime yet and I have a Vita fully paid off as well as close to $400 worth of gift cards for Best Buy and Gamestop.
Location based applications will work more accurately in 3G Vita.
For some games, there are special MP game modes for 3G Vita. According to Andriasang (or my memory of a few Andriasang articles), RR and Musou support a limited 3G MP mode.
If all go according to plan, I'm buying a 3G Vita just because I like to future proof my purchases, and I dislike draining battery on my iPhone. Due to my heavy usage, my iPhone already run out of battery every day without gaming a single second on it.
The other potential for 3G is Playstation Suite. It is a platform for mobile devices such as phone and tablets. If a PS Suite app is written to take advantage of the phone's location based services, I want to be able to play it on 3G Vita too. PS Suite apps run in a cross platform VM, so I reckon it should be playable on Vita right away.
Will be preordering mine soon. I'll be picking up the first edition bundle as well as Uncharted and LBP. I'd like to preorder Gravity Rush but it doesn't have a date listed which leaves me hesitant. I thought about preordering ModNation and Wipeout, but I'm not a huge fan of racing games and I'd think it rather depressing to get two driving games. I can only turn left so many times.
Amazon put up a couple more, still waiting on 32gb

Don't care. My body is ready whenever it releases. Amazon has it down for the 22nd though, which I know probably isn't much help. : (

Best buy has it as a launch title. who knows what it is. we'll find out soon i hope.
Actually, have a look here. http://store.sony.com/webapp/wcs/st...10151&langId=-1&productId=8198552921666379159
Pretty sure that's the case. I'd like to see inside of it to see if it has slots for game cards but it at least looks like a quality case.
looks leathery/plastic, which is perfect imo, but it would be nice to see a little of the inside.
The Elite
BOSS
gamestop has it listed as March 31st.

Wow, you went all out! Tip of the cap to you sir/maam.
Sorry for the noob question but I'm assuming there are no issues with getting a US Vita which I'll be taking back to Europe? Just cos I'm in the region here but will move back to Europe eventually. The only thing I should worry about is which region I set my account up to, right?
So, whatever the monthly pricing is for 3G, if I don't want to pay for the 3G I can switch it off and use it as a WiFi Vita, right?
I'm thinking about picking one up a little after launch (Probably March or April, as I'm going on a big vacation in Feb,) and I'm tempted by the 3G, but I'm not sure.

correct.
Hey guys, a question about new PSN download game download terms.
I heard somewhere (here probably) that the game I purchased on PSN can now be registered maximum 2 console account. Since I'm buying 3 Vitas and 3 32 GB Memory cards, I would like to know if this is true or not.
Thanks.

Yes, only 2 PSP/Vita activations per account.

yeah I agree, personally I'm leaning towards importing this one - http://www.play-asia.com/Hard_Pouch_for_PlayStation_Vita_Silver/paOS-13-71-1ay-49-en-70-4h5o.html
comes to about $20 after shipping

That pouch looks quite nice.
Man, I'm still wavering on 32 vs. 16gb mem cards over here. 75/25 in favor of the 32 though.

Anyone have a recommendation for a tough case with a lot of storage? I plan on taking my Vita with me, so I want to be able to throw it into a bag without worrying. Really like the pull and go folio for my 3DS, is there a Vita equivalent (doesn't really meet the toughness criteria but definitely has a ton of storage!).

Why does the charging cradle cost $20? Why would you willingly let yourself get ripped off like that?
Things still got a plug connector too. It wouldn't even offer any convenience over plugging the cable in directly.

That is just absolutely ludicrous, especially the memory card.
All of the value of ownership, and joy, is lost in that colossal rip-off. ($50 games?)
And you guys have to wonder why this thing will tank?

I used to buy imports and throw my money away just as good as the next guy/idiot, even better. But this, and in this day and age, and USA pricing?
But this is not the 3DS.
i pre-ordered a euro vita (wifi) a week ago for ~$156 from a swiss online store. it was obviously a misprice (regular is $350 here lol), but i have a feeling they'll honor it. it's already paid in full and this is just the kinda store that might. wouldn't be the first time either.
