The PSP Go has 16gig of internal memory. The 16gig iPod Touch is $299. I'm currently on the market for a new MP3 player. With the way it can integrate with my PS3 through Remote Play and decent library, the PSP Go is a contender.

Have you played any of the other Ratchet and Clank games? There was never any carry over from the previous game, so it would be absurd to think that this would change after the 5th game in the series. Would the game really be fun if on the first level you had the mega rocket launcher that kills everything on the screen? And they usually give some reason for you not having all of your weapons (sometimes it is a little weak, but it is there). And yes I know that you can sometimes access the weapons you had in a prior game, but it usually costs a decent amount of bolts and you can't get those on the first level.

I do agree that Quest for Booty was too short for $15, but that's not going to stop me from getting the new game.

I've never had a Grand Central call go to any of my other voicemails. I set my work phone to go straight to voicemail if I'll be off for a few days. It keeps ringing on my cell and it doesn't leave a message on voicemail.

You can set up groups and route certain groups to certain phones. Friends/Family/Work/Other/Spam are the defaults. There is a "custom" but I've yet to play with that. You can also play a different greeting and have a different ringer(what the caller hears) per group.
