In a case of the PS2p, the book really would only assist you in giving you the basics on how to mod the system to make it portables, but we're working on a gereral reference guide.

As for special... there are only a few PS2p done. I believe, Ben's and Segasonicfan's are the only ones done. So having the third isn't bad, you'll have bragging rights.

Please, please spell check your post before pressing submit. A few grammatical errors or misspelled works once and awhile, no problem. However you're first post in this thread is just littered with them.

I finished a NESp (heh heh heh, I fixed it, mortals!) and I am on a GCp. So watch out, fools! 13 year old! Anyways, the psone screen is my hardest trial in portablizing. I broke one modifying it with LEDS! (yea, I just use the bulb now. =P)And I tried to jump a fuse on one and accidentally desoldered them both. So keep the interaction with the screen at bare minimum. Keep it in a case when not fiddling with it as well. And use a 10 watter with a pencil tip for your soldering iron. It is a nesscessity

That clear 'bulletproof' stuff your thinking of is either Lucite or Lexan, which is had to work with and not that bulletproof at all, I've shot at it. So if you wanna dodge bullets become an Agent.

Maybe that $150 should go towards proper English classes :P

How would you go about turning a Gameboy into an NES? Is it even worth it, 'cause you might break that too. Besides the impracticality of turning a Gameboy into an NES, a $150 would just barely cut it, and I should ask if you think you have enough education in electronics to attempt something as hard as a PS2p. Only a few have made one successfully, but maybe you could...
