PDA's are a portable computer and PSP and the like are portable consoles. There is room for both. Bussinessmen need the power of the PDA to run a diverse set of programs (and maybe a few games), kids like to play games and have little use for the rest of the things a PDA offers. Alse the most expensive portable console would set you back $250, while the cheapest PDA is about the same price and the most expensive can go up to $700.

The PDA and the portable console are not each others rivals and never will be. Different people buy them. The interresting developments for PDA's are smartphones. Some see this as a threat to PDA's but I see it more as an oppertunity. Obviously people are asking for the extra power of a smartphone over the normal abbilities of phones. Developers of PDA's need to do more to cater to that wish.
