This handheld console was finally released in Europe on September 1st and here's a review from Pocket Lint on this device. Here's a short snip from their article:

It’s the must have gadget this Christmas (by which the UK may have consistent stock), but can the hype live up to the dream? We take a look at Sony’s new handheld console the PSP and see if it’s all its cracked up to be. It’s sleek, it’s shiny, it’s got that wow factor and it has all the elements any great gadget has. Slightly bigger than you might expect from a device (6.7in x 2.9in) that you’re expected to put in your pocket, the PSP oozes appeal all over..
