It would seem unlikely you can play WoW directly on the IPad at this point in time. However, a company called Gaikai has managed to convert WoW's data into a streaming application from a server and sending this to the IPad.

In short, WoW runs on a Gaikai server, and you login through their server. The game runs on their server system, only the displayed results (what you see on the screen) is sent to your IPad and your commands sent back to their server and on to Blizzard.

Downsides of this system is that there might be considerable delay in the game, and obviously it seems unsafe because the people at another company will know your Username and Password for World of Warcraft. This would require some Non-Disclosure Agreements on their part, and most likely endorsement by Blizzard before that hole is fixed.

It's still in Beta, and other companies are working on the same thing, so once it's complete and the legal issues have been taken care of, it might be reliable

Can you play World of Warcraft on your psp?

Since World of Warcraft is a game designed for PC/Mac, it can't directly play on a PSP. It might be possible to stream a feed and data through, like what is possible with an iPad, but even then it's very convoluted with a small screen and limited buttons.
