@kspraydad, I'm thinking about getting the GPS for PSP. But I don't know how much that will cost.
I'm hoping for some more AAA games for PSP and DS, but I also wouldn't mind seeing a new Nintendo or Sony portable. But I think Nintendo will come out with a new portable first, maybe in 2010. Then Sony will release PSP2 in 2011.
I have stopped checking the FCC as frequently and actually last checked on the 12th...this announcement came out on the 13th and I found it on some site and verified.
I think the PSPCHINA.Net story from last month was pretty strong so I think we will see the integrated mic and revamped home button. SONY is going to want to have PSP positioned to use with HOME and requiring the headset is a pain.
I'm thinking a battery revamp might be in there too (see recent dropping of Extended battery pack for PSP news) for anti pandora reasons.
Wish list:
No HDD/Flash yet but a second MemSticks slot would be cool, built in camera or built in GPS would be nice. Cost on GPS would be recovered through $ for maps.
Posters on the PSPChina BBS are claiming that Sony is planning on releasing a hardware update to the currently available PSP, model number 2000, one that includes a built-in microphone, updated buttons, a few cosmetic changes and possibly even cell phone support.
Sony has thought about and continues to play around with the idea of building a Playstation Portable with a built in hard drive or internal memory, Jack Tretton, president and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment of America, said this morning at a gather of game writers.
Namely, firmware 4.05 adds "support for PlayStation Store Movies and TV video service."
Go ahead; read that again. PlayStation Store movies and TV. We can barely believe it ourselves. Of course, these often rumored features haven't been announced by Sony, but tomorrow is set to bring the company's E3 press conference and a slew of announcements.
PSP firmware 4.05 is now available for download. The update will include new music playback visualizations and the ever-conclusive "other features" according to the PlayStation.Blog. According to PSP Fanboy, "Firmware 4.05 includes two new visualizers, one if you have a wallpaper and one if you don't.
I wanted to give a quick heads up to everyone that a new PSP firmware update, v4.05, will be released soon. We know that more and more of you are listening to music on your PSP, and this update will add new visualizers for music playback, among other features. Enjoy!
