Sony has taken the wraps off the upcoming Playstation Portable, due for release in Japan in late 2004 and after x-mas in the States. The PSP will use a 333 MHz processor, run games off proprietary mini-DVDs called UMDs, and playback video and audio (ATRAC3+ only?) from the Memory Stick Duo slot or from UMDs (pre-recorded only though). It’ll have integrated WiFi, a 4.3″ widescreen, stereo speakers, USB 2.0 (maybe) with a number of different options, like GPS and camera, and much more. If this costs less than $200, it’ll be a runaway hit, despite stoopid DRM.
Get all the specs and pics and something to wipe that drool off your face at Ferrago.
