Hello, I speak to you from a PSP. How crazy is that? Typing w/o a keyboard is tedious but not as difficult as you might think.

Ha ha, you have a PSP.

(I'm kidding. Everyone knows Sony products are among the most well-made, and that they never break down. >_>)

Yes... The fact that one of the buttons doesn't feel right due ot it's proximity to the LCD screen is a "design feature" rather than a flaw.

Any new design, flawed as it may be, will feel unnatural until you get used to it. I'm sure that after awhile you can use the buttons just fine.

It's kind of slow to type without a keyboard, but that's okay, we'll just read slower. :P

If it was 'buttons' you'd have a point. But it isn't. It's 'button'.

I'm against the PSP on principle. The principle that I can't afford one... :P

i barely use mine since my bus is too bumpy to play VG on and too Loud too watch movies even with headphones

No bus is too bumpy to play videogames on, provided those videogames don't require the use of a stylus.

And UMD is overpriced as a movie format.

Alright. Which button?

The Square button is about as far from the screen as the right directional button. If you have opposable thumbs, the joynub is easily used; the same with the select and start buttons.

Compared to the GBA, they're not that different from one another in the basic design; though the PSP has more buttons then the GBA, it's up to the game developers to map out game functions to go with buttons properly for players. Depending on the in game layout, one PSP button (whichever it is) can still be quickly adapted to.

Square button. It doesn't 'click'. And, the right directional button isn't a button, it's a componant of a dpad, which isn't really a button. It's kinda a switch which depending on the direction pressed determins which of x directions are mapped to. a d-pad is one unit rather than four buttons. Which is why on the psp the right goes up when you press left and left goes up when you press right, for example.
