Meh, £25 isn't gonna make much difference. I think this is more competitive pricing than a slash of price because no-one wants to pay that much for PSP!
Yes they do. Simply spend an extra $35-40 dollars and purchase an additional battery pack. Thus you get the cheaper library and twice the playing time and still save about $40.00 versus the PSP Go.
If you have to buy $16GB of memory AND additional battery packs you've wiped out any price advantage the 3000 had. Plus you have to haul that stuff around!
Well the clock speed rumour comes from a miss-reported FCC filing that was to do with usb rather than the cpu, RAM remains the same according to wiki, don't know where that one comes from.
True, but given the cheaper/hardcopy library, modability, longer playtimes and bigger screen, people may find more value in pimping out a 3000 than opting for the Go.
Surely you'd either buy the 16GB card and play download games, or play UMD games and use the extra batteries to offset the UMD power consumption?
But then it's one or the other, and not a "best of both worlds" device, just like I said originally!
Granted, while some people may see value in the smaller size and increased portability offered by the Go and digital download.

China made PSPGo knock-off on the market now:

The casing is probably sourced from the same factories
They got the homebrew part right though. ^_^

Yesterday i had the pleasure of trying GT-PSP on a PSP-GO.
I find that the PSP-Go is superior to the Original PSP in every aspect, and driving was much more easy with the placement of the analog "thumb" and the feedback it gives compared to the PSP-1000.
One thing that surprised me and really made it much more interesting was something as simple as Size. The new design, slide out controls and slightly smaller screen makes it so much easier to carry with you. The PSP-GO is really something you can put in your pocket and carry without whenever it suits you. The Original PSP was something that usually ended up in a bag or something like that when i brought it with me.
If Sony had been a little bit more clever they would have added a phone to this little Gem and a touchscreen. It would really have been something the borders on perfect.
The PSP-GO jumped from "don´t care" to "ohh i guess i need one" within a few minutes of handling.

Popular press review compares the PSPgo with iPhone/iTouch:

Even worse, the PS3 version is $59.99 while the iPhone is $9.99!!!!!
Does he think buyers are idiots? Just because two games have the same name does not make them the same. While I agree the PSP version cost to much (no PSP game is really worth $40 IMO), they should not assume the consumers are brain dead.
I just picked up Madden 2008 on UMD for $8, so I'll take the best of both worlds
Yeah, and Assassin's Creed the 2.5D platformer (which seems to be built on the Prince of Persia remake code or something) isn't quite comparable with the PSP version's full 3D version either (which seems to be built on an improved verison of the engine running the PSP versions of the modern Prince of Persia games on PS2)
