This is the PSP Go, the new mini PSP from Sony. And these are official Sony publicity shots, although they dont come straight from Sony PR. Rather, they were leaked after the new console was spotted in a prematurely showing of the June 2009 Qore video (Qore is an online PlayStation magazine). Its no quick mention, either. The new Go is the subject of a full-on piece by the first lady of podcasting, Veronica Belmont.
Its cute, and it will sell alongside the current PSP 3000. The specs:
- 16GB flash storage
- Less than half the weight of the current PSP
- Bluetooth
- No UMD drive
- Memory Stick Micro
Price is as yet undisclosed, but wed hope that its cheaper than the PSP 3000. Likewise, there is no shipping date. But theres one thing we do know. The PSP will no longer look ridiculously large and brick-like next to the Nintendo DS or the iPod Touch. Or a brick.
