The ipod shuffle is really hard to break and if you have a Mac, super easy to run. There's a couple of cute easy options targeted at children, and the Sansa brand is good. Because they're small and light, get a big fluffy keychain thing so she can find it!
Do not not not get her a PSP. They are totally awesome but at 7 and a half she won't have the personal control to put it away. My boys would love one, but then they would be on it 24/7. You would need to monitor it, jealousy from the others etc.
She doesn't need to be constantly entertained! Getting her into music at this point, encouraging her with it - she could get an iTunes song every week or you could look into some music blogs that post free interesting songs - is awesome. The games are just crack though. Beautiful gorgeous crack, but I think too much for a kid.
