Sony unveils new PSP Go, kind of

Everyone knew that Sony's big E3 announcement was going to be the new PSP Go. As per usual in these situations someone has leaked the specs online already.

  • 3.8-inch display of unknown resolution
  • 43 percent lighter than the current PSP-3000
  • 16GB of flash memory
  • Integrated Bluetooth with mobile phone tethering and BT headset support
  • Memory Stick Micro slot
  • New Gran Turismo, Little Big Planet and Metal Gear Solid games
  • Full PlayStation Network support (TV and movie rentals/purchases) and integration with the PlayStation 3

I have an original psp (model 2000 I think) and it was a good little device. The only problem is that it has no USP. With the way that modern tech has converged it is basically a smartphone without the telephone capabilities. Sure it is good or movie playback, but the screen is almost identical to the iPhone or HTC Magic in terms of size, and now that they have remove the UMD drive its even less distanced from them.
