Among other things.

From what he sounds like he wants its better he go with the PSP it aimed at the adult audience.

I own neither (and never owned a console in my life), just making the above observation.

Arreo, does that mean that you've never played contra, the great console rpgs, or MGS4?

or mario 64, star fox 64, mario kart 64, the original super smash bros, pokemon red, blue, yellow, golden eye, and many others

Final Fantasy series, Chrono Trigger, Call of Duty, Metal Slug, Warhammer 40,000 Squad Command, Mario Kart DS, New Super Mario Bros, Castlevania series, language trainers, brain trainers, yoga....

There are aftermarket upgrades that allow it to play video, mp3, etc. There was an opera based browser, but I don't think it was offered in the US.

I like the DS because it is a solid state system with no CDs and a ton of games that use a stylus and mic in different ways.

In terms of hardware, the PSP has a bigger, widescreen display, and the DS has two smaller ones and a touchscreen. Basically, I'd do some research and look at the games available for both, and make your decision based on which one has more titles you'd be interested in. They both have an impressive library of good games at this point, so it's really up to personal preference.

The new DS coming out is supposed to have MP3 player and a camera on in.

I think the PSP has so many uses besides game, also the games that are on the PSP are much more my style. The DS split screen touch screen is really no something i look for in a portable. A hacked PSP is the way to go.
