An overenthusiastic tip sent by PSP Fanboy reader David D. shows an athlete carrying his PSP (equipped with Go!Cam) to the Olympic Games in Beijing. Now that's being a real fanboy -- who cares about the giant crowds and heated worldwide competition when you've got PSP with you?

Dude's in the Olympics. In China. Does he really have such a hard time finding something to do while hanging out in a foreign country surrounded by so many people from so many different parts of the world so much that he even needs a PSP?

Have you ever stand in a stadium for 2-3 hours straight?
I'd imagine it's pretty boring.

I think he's taking picture of the event, not playing a game. Though I could be wrong, in any case, DID YOU SEE the free sponsorship of the IPOD???

Nearly every American athlete had one on, in between preformances.

FAIL, Sony, FAIL.

I usually take my PSP around with me all the time, but to think a paticipant would take their PSP to the olympics, in China.

That just shows how great it is.

He had a go-cam. I doubt he was playing games. This entire post is confusing in its tone and seems to have no point.
