...viewer, allowing you to build slideshows, and an MP3 player. But you'll probably want to hang on to your regular MP3 device. The PSP lacks any kind of native play list or photo organizer, relying instead on the order of the files as they appear on the memory card to determine the order of play. It theoretically supports the "m3u" music play list, a standardized format used by many players except for iTunes, but I couldn't get it to work. The PSP has other limitations on its multimedia.
