That is what I am scared of. I will mess it up by moving it around in my desk and stuff. Did you get the Hori one then? Not sure which one to buy!

Just a reminder. The Vita is actually not officially released yet so unless stuff is already up on the Store they probably wont be until the 22 like the FB, Flickr, Twitter apps.

You cannot use Media Go for Vita, there is separate application called Content Manager, but it doesn't have shop so far. So only Vita or PS3 for buying content.

And the AR games.

That is really awesome.
Probably already posted, but just in case...
First MC Gravity Rush review :
Gameblog.fr : 5/5
Games that are as exceptional as this one are so rare, than when one comes, it's impossible not to grab it really tight and press it against our chest.

If you get the WiFi version, remember to add your own router to SkyHook's database. I think the link is somewhere in the OP.
It would make your positioning more accurate and comprehensive. The GPS in 3G Vita should be more precise and works anywhere as long as the satellite can see you (Not indoor !). WiFi "geolocation" will only work if SkyHook knows about the IP access points near you. Hence, 3G Vita uses both technologies (for indoor and outdoor positioning).

Hey, I was wondering, do ps3 trophies and vita trophies sync to one account like xbox live and windows pc stuff does? Or windows phone 7, would be cool if you can boost the account on the go

Yes
Just read this article that may be of interest to people that haven't played many PSP games. "15 best PSP games to download on your PS Vita at launch"
I for one will be checking out a few of these since I seem to have skipped over most of them.

so when i compare trophies on ps3 i also see vita games if someone played any?
Yeah I'd switch it out if you are having issues.
As someone who never really played a PSP, which compatible PSP or Minis would you guys recommend for the Vita?
Here's the list:

The few games I really want (Mega Man Power Up, GTA: Chinatown Wars) are not available

I bought the Sony one because it's available in store when I collected my Vita. It comes with 2 sheets. So I trimmed one and apply it to the back touch.

How do you take os level screen caps?
No, but you can see PS3 trophies on your Vita. Hopefully Sony will update the PS3 soon to support this.

Hold down the PS button and the start button.
Press PS and Start buttons together, if my memory still serves me.
Well, I don't hate it. My son and I enjoyed it when we gave the demo a spin 3 months ago.
I've played it on a test unit and I loved it. It is a charming little game that certainly deserves more credit than it is getting.

The Elite
BOSS
Just don't pay the asking price for Soul Calibur. $39.99 :/
Ok so I played one at eb today.
First the pros
+ the image is really nice. I like how it looks like it is right on top of the screen and not like you are looking through a layer of plastic then the screen.
+ screen looks bigger than I thought it would.
+ the resolution fits the screen perfectly it looks like if a home console ran everything in 1080p
Now the cons
- not as solid feeling as it looks in screen shots. Everything feels cheap and that includes the thumb sticks.
- what the hell is up with the load times?! Everything took forever to load!. Wipe out was the worst around a minute or so to load a track.

Good point. I already had it. Maybe a better deal would be just to get Metal Slug Anthology.
Someone posted earlier that it will attempt up to 10km, but he did not provide any link. ^_^
I reckon Sony will adjust the maximum distance post-launch. It should be server controlled. If there are too many hits within the current max. radius, the Near app may become awkward/congested to use. If there are too few hits, then it's boring !
In any case, the Near service will keep expanding its search range within this max limit to find enough friends and activities for you.

That I don't know. I actually haven't checked trophies on my ps3. Just moved some psp games over. Vita has been the only thing i have played but you do see the ps3 and vita trophies on your vita and they all add to your level. I think the vita games won't show up on the ps3 but the level will stay. I need to put down HSG long enough to check thou.

No Monster Hunter on that list. I am saddened.
10km isn't near at all. That's kind of a lot in a small country as Denmark isn't it. That's like a 45 minute trip with the bus.
lol. You asked for it !
Just a reminder. The Vita is actually not officially released yet so unless stuff is already up on the Store they probably wont be until the 22 like the FB, Flickr, Twitter apps.
... and NetFlix should be day one also, plus FourSquare. I think it's important for Sony to keep these apps up-to-date.
In addition, don't forget the Sony Entertainment Network services:
Music Unlimited, Video Unlimited, PlayMemories
PlayMemories should launch within this quarter, and comes with 5Gb of free cloud storage to keep our photo/video library.
Then, you can think about whether you want to subscribe to PS+. ^_^
PS3 Firmware Update 4.10 added auto clock sync. That means we should be able to sync multiple devices soon (PS3 and Vita). Hope to see Vita cloud sync and resume play here. But the feature I want most is expanded friends list. Too bad Sony probably overlooked it. 8^(
EDIT:
Skype has also been announced, but it may be late.
looks like all the resellable friendly games are not there. get ready for hd crysis core and monster hunter.

For everyone having trouble with applying the promo to their 3g, here's something i haven't seen anyone mention:
You have to go to add a plan, and then click redeem coupon.
The vita promo is selectable there.
(this is assuming you've already signed up for 3g)
Here are the definitive instructions for activating your free SSD Vita promotion.
(add to OP?)
Login at att.com/buyasession
click "my devices and plans"
click on your psvita plan
click "add plan"
click "redeem earned coupon"
the rest is self explanatory
If you dont have the option to "redeem earned coupon" then somethings screwy and you need to call at&t.

a comment on the PS blog indicated that they were able to trasnfer GT over to their Vita even though it's not on the list.
could someone PLEASE try PJM and any others you guys have that aren't on the list? we can at least get a semi confirmed list going on GAF. i don't think sony will be back to update that list for a while...

I'll put some silica gels inside and it should be fine after a day or two.

That's awesome, but there's one thing I don't get. Are they reviewing the JP version or the EU version? If it's the EU version, how did they get it? Could this mean it's actually a launch DD title in the EU?

Wasn't it through the PS3?

I think it searches up to 10km. If you find others sooner it wont search further... just my understanding.

Played Vita for the first time today with WipeEout.
Graphics are absolutely phenomenal for a portable device. Screen is way bigger than I imagined it to be as well as sharp and bright.
The device is really light. Dual sticks have a good feedback and not what I thought they would be i.e. shit.
All the other people having a go seemed impressed with the device and the price. I certainly was. I'm going to make pre-order on Amazon.co.uk now for WiFi model, 32GB card, Uncharted and WipeOut, plus SStardust on the store.
Hype +1

Prepare to be shocked. On March 7th Apple will be unveiling iPad 3. It will have 4GLTE, a retina screen, and a much faster processor + better battery, all in a package just slightly bigger than iPad 2.
