Sky partnership bears fruit with the roll-out of video-on-demand PSP service...

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe provided further details on its collaboration with Sky Broadcasting during the Leipzig Games Convention. Available on a pay-per-view basis, Go! allows you to download video content straight to the PSP or transfer downloaded content to a PC.

In a thinly veiled swipe at Microsoft, SCEE promises the Go! branded video service to commence "with a rich selection of high quality entertainment", when it launches during 2008, primarily in the UK and Ireland. Marking the first time that Sky have offered video content through a non-branded service, the choice of programs available will include content from the full span of Sky's programming normally only available to subscribers, spanning sports, entertainment, movies, music and animation. In addition, Sky will also be working with third-parties to expand upon the original service,

"Both truly mobile and with a best in class high-quality screen, PSP delivers a great on-the-move video experience. Working with such a well known content brand, we will be able to offer PSP owners access to the best in cross-genre Sky content, available through the first official video download service. This really will make PSP the standout all-in-one portable gaming, video and music device", commented David Reeves, President of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe.

James Murdoch, Chief Executive Officer, BSkyB, adds: "Sky and Sony Computer Entertainment Europe have complementary strengths in content, marketing and technology. Together, we're ideally placed to make portable, on-demand TV a reality. Alongside our existing services for PCs and mobile phones, this is another example of how we're working to give more choice, flexibility and control to customers. The quality of the PSP's screen and its substantial reach among 2 million users in the UK and Ireland makes it a natural extension to our multi-platform strategy."

lol an 80 gb psp is not possible unless they use ssd hard drives which cost sh*t loads to buy independantly maybe you should get used to dreaming, though if they stop making any games for it or make a psp that could only get games from the ps3 then you could have maybe a 20gb max where the current disk drive is. apart from that the psp is getting more like the ds minus the touch screen which no doubt will probably happen in the no so distant future.

UMD already dead. Sony has nothing to lose by adding SD stuff on the Blu-ray discs for PSP viewing.

good point but i think i would only pay about $250 and not bother with the touch screen.with mobile tec in there you could play games over the net any time any where but only at a reasonable price of course.

Sony should have added a 40 or 80 gig internal hard drive like the ipod to the psp instead of making it thinner and lighter! With the extra space it would be the same size as the Orignal psp but with a hard drive! get the word out maybe they will hear our call! touch screen,Phone,internal camera, calender! I will pay $500 to $600 for this better then iphone because of games and UMD but same price!

fair enough about the head set although i've been trying to buy one for a while now and you can only get one with socom navy seals.but i already own the game and refuse to buy it again just for the headset.try'd ebay but prices are over valued with no idea if it still works.
