Why the PSP GO! isn't as great as the PSP 1000-3000

There was lots of hype on the arrival on the newcoming of a PSP. People thought it would be a way better system than the previous PSP's in general. I was even so exited, thinking about the look of it, downloading games, and a nicer, non-plastic feeling PSP. But as soon as it was revealed at E3, it looked like the most dissapointing feature at E3. The PSP GO! has many new features, which look nice, but aren't as great as they sound. Lets first tale about the looks. The previous PSP's were a one piece brick, which i don't mind at all. But the PSP GO! has a smaller screen, with a slide out control pad. One thing that dissapointed me, was the fact that they didn't add as stupid second analog stick, even though Sony was aware that everyone was desperate for one! The PSP GO! doesn't have the same feeling of the PSP 1000, but instead it feels exactly like the PSP-3000, a plastic, fake, super-light system you won't even know is in your pocket. Now lets talk about the features. The PSP GO! does have a brighter screen, but it still doesn't have the "all together" feeling when you play a game. Instead, you have to slide out the controls, which makes it a more uncomfortable experience, because you have to turn your fingers even more down, which gives it a wierd feeling. One good thing about the PSP GO!, is that it has a built in 16gb memory stick, so you can download games onto it, without having the hassle to go and buy the games in a store. But I was always puzzled on what you have to do with the games you already own? They should've added a UMD slot into the GO!, so you can play your UMD's aswell as download them on PSN. I think the PSP GO! is not worth the $280. Do you agree?
