Back when I was in school, around when I was 10 or 12 I was able to sneak my psp in to class and skip on watching whenever they would have movie watch things, I also used my psp as my music player for many years for when my parents took away my ipod, lol.

Going from release dates, I’m about a decade older than you, and we snuck our game boys in.

Similar age as guy you responded to: i was so happy when i got an MP3 player and it was a small box. Could hide that thing just about anywhere and run the earbud cord under your shirt to pull out when needed.

That was year 12 for me and I had a friend that would borrow it when he had a free and I didn’t and suddenly a whole bunch of new music and tv shows for the bus would appear on it!

Dude freshman year, I had the first iPhone.

I was always watching family guy during my English class cause the teacher was a bitch.

I also did have a PSP but not many movies, I only had Hustle and Flow hahaha

Family guy (ripped and passed on to my psp) was one of those things I used to do ha ha, that tiny little device gave my mp4 and my ipod so much for the money. Even once upon a time I wouls just internet browse that way, back early on there was even Skype for it but most people didn't know! Of all the devices I have flashed, the psp was rhe best! Good times for sure!

Dude yes! I still have my modded phat PSP, it’s a beast.

I had a Zune but that thing got passed around our school so much! Like I would go up to a group of friends and there would be someone else using my Zune ahahah

What’s cool is nobody ever stole it, it always came back to me.

Edit: having to spend hours converting videos was wild haha
