IMO, the phatty feels 'nicer' in my hands. It's heavier, a little bigger and i really like the matte finish and front face plate. It just looks and feels like a $200 machine. Unfortunately it hurt my hands after a few hours and was a battery destroyer.
The slim feels a little 'cheaper' than the phatty but it's nice nonetheless. I find it to be much more portable than the phatty and it gets amazing battery life with an extended pack. The colors are also fly as hell.
I'd recommend the slim as a lot of the new accessories and firmware functions are only available for it and not the phatty.

Get the slim. It has much better load times.

Not meaning to go off the intended track of this thread but could you explain those extended battery packs like do you put it in place of your original PSP Slim battery, and where do you get them.
Thanks

No problem.
The extended battery pack is just a repackaged 2200 mAh battery with special battery covers that fit the slim. Here's the amazon page where you can see the image. Shop around because you can probably find a better price than what they're asking. As with all battery purchases be sure to buy retail and NOT eBay.
You just pop out the slim battery and pop in the new battery and new cover. It bulges out of the back of the slim a bit but I feel that it's worth it considering just how much extended life you get out of it.
