The console meets my expectations: it reads UMD games (many of them are now new findable at 10 euros, the rest rarely exceeds twenty euros) and movies (I have a small collection of films that UMD will now be reused). The valve for UMD seems a little fragile; care should be taken not to force it. The big downside is the lack of any memory card, it will be essential to buy one for backing parts (Memory stick pro duo Sony - MSMT2GN - Memory card - Memory Stick Pro Duo - 2 GB).
