Cost of PSP is minimum $250.
How does it stack up vs DS? depends.
PSP can make a decent portable media player , but the launch titles and titles due out for the year are/seem pretty weak.
DS has a much stronger game lineup in the work and more 3rd party support(as it stands).
Really depends if you want it for, to quote myself "Seems like alot of people will buy a PSP to do almost everything *but* play games at this point".
So if all the additional features of PSP interest you, get one and wait for some good titles.
If not, well I wouldn't get a DS yet either its current lineup is somewhat weak too, but theres about 10 "must haves" for release later this year.

was just a gimmick, and so far I agree with him.

Also..saying a control scheme is a "gimmick" is just an excuse not to address the underlying game design issues.
A Gimmick is something that is hardly supported or is only given "token support" to lure in customers.
Saying the DS is not using its features is..silly at best, Just because you didn't *like* the end result (most people were disappointed with Yoshi, because they were expecting a platformer, not a puzzle game which was very good at what it did). Doesn't make it a "gimmick"...just means you didn't like it.
