GC08 - New PSP Confirmed By SCEE News

By Jon Wilcox on 20/08/2008 Sony Europe announces a PSP with a built in mic due in October; current Slim & Lite 'remains important'...

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has today revealed that a new version of the PSP will be heading to gamers from October for 199 Euros.

The announcement was made during SCEE's conference at the Leipzig Game Convention, and confirmed recent online speculation. The new model, which matches the same trim design of the current Slim & Lite, includes a built-in microphone (perfect for those Skype calls) and an improved screen that allows for better performance in natural light conditions.

The new model, which will come in eight different bundles, comes at the expense of the current PSP-2000 (the original Slim & Lite), which will be reduced in price to 169 Euros.

I have a psp lite which I bought after I was let down by 2 xbox 36Os. For me this console is tops, already looking 4ward to the release of the psp3OOO. I use it to play games and do all my emailing etc. A good reliable handheld.

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.
