Now the PSP can be used for more than just gaming. For a low price of $19.95, you too can own the Sony PSP Media Manager. The Media Manager will allow any enthusiastic PSP-owner to transfer media to their PSP. Engadget reports:

There’s a two pane interface for viewing your respective PSP and PC files, and you can manage files on both systems, along with the required conversions, right in the app. Not much of the rumored Sony Connect support is mentioned, but you do get 5 free downloads with purchase of the $25 packaged version, which also includes a USB cable for data transfers.

I wonder when the PSP will go wireless.

   If you, like myself, think that this program should come bundled with the purchase of a PSP, send Sony a message to let them know about it.

   To contact their customer service department, go to the following site:
   http://www.us.playstation.com/contactus.aspx?id=form

   Click on the ‘Consumer Services’ link under ‘Support/Consumer Services’. From the ‘Category’ drop-menu at the bottom, choose ‘Other’under the ‘Corporate’ heading. Click on ‘Continue’, and then submit your comment. I sent the following message yesterday:

   “I just purchased a PSP, and I am disappointed to learn that I will have to pay an additional fee if I want the software that you have designed to manage it. If Sony intends to compete in the multimedia market with other companies such as Apple, which provides it’s iPod management software for free, the PSP Media Manager should come with the purchase of the PSP itself. The fact that it does not suggests a short-sighted marketing strategy which disrespects customers who have already paid a significant amount of money for your product.”

   I received the following response today:

   “We value your input and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Please rest assured that we will convey your feedback to Sony Computer Entertainment America’s (”SCEA”) appropriate management.”

   It is unlikely that much will come of my own individual complaint, but Sony may decide to change its policy if enough people voice their disapproval.
