Yeah..and the more i keep reading about the go the less I am interested.  

Size...
-I have very long pianist fingers already sometimes it is uncomfortable to use the triggers and dpad/buttons on the slim, I can't see it being more comfy on the go.

Colors...
Again, only black and white :(  Why not just get with the program, give us the blue and silver too!!  I would DEFINITELY buy a blue one to match my WRX!  Even better would be a graphite dark silver color!

Plugability...
-There is only one connectivity plug which supplies power, usb, video output
-The usb cable is proprietary and expensive to buy extras
-The AC adapter uses the usb cable, buying a spare ac adapter does NOT include the usb cable required to power it
-Another new video cable will be required
-No spare batteries for the long trips
-No UMD, so I hope they will be doing the upc trade in deal to get digital download versions...and they better not charge for that spoon cause double you tee eff!  I paid for the game already!

Themes...
-PTF are a joke and leave no room for true creativity!  The PSP has been a canvas for my creativity for over 2 years now.  The only graphic experience I have is on the PSP and I often times prefer to drift away in photoshop and hexworkshop than actually play games on the psp!

I'm sure my buddy will be buying one and I will have the chance to check it out first person...but as for right now, I love my Arctic Silver Slim!

well i have to say that this is normally all the woes associated with almost all the mainstream portable media devices (Archos, Apple, Sansa and now sony)

Though it isn't great that sony HAS jumped on the whole proprietary cable connections; it isn't that big of a problem if you're a normal ipod user or the like.

Personally i always have used one usb cable for my psp, and my ipod never has been too much of a pain with it's proprietary connector.

Also bringing up the point of hacking and homebrew, UMD problems could be solved through the dumping of the .iso's or downloading ones you currently own (i hope you're moralistic like that).

Is it practical to have proprietary? No, but i can't see it being more of a pain in the donkey with the go rather than anything else.

I'm not big on travelling as well, so the battery problem is not really hard on for people who seldom leave their countries or district.

If i do get one, I'll have to write a review for it right away to give you guys a better aspect on the thing (i can't gauge exactly how big this thing is or how it will feel in my hands)
