I will buy one probably. Saw some demonstration and developers say that it is a quite capable machine closer to today's consoles. Half of it may be promotional bugger but still, it means it is quite powerful.

It seems Sony decided to make a portable with everything in it.
, All possible types of control input, all connectivity found in a cellphone (Wi-Fi, 3G, Bluetooth), cameras, a GPS, a bloody quad core and the only thing missing is a mic.

Yeah. I'm probably going to be looking into this too. Got to sell my PSP otherwise it will be worthless when this comes out.

Resolution is one of the strongest points for me.

Duel analogs is a great step up too. Now I will be able to play FPS on a portable properely:)

I wonder how will be the price tag. Currently the PSP 3004's are sold for something like 400 TL here which is roughly 200 E.

I'm afraid That 3G model gonna oscillate around 199$-249$ plus 3G monthly payment...
Just Wi-Fi around 249-299$ but I'm just guessing here...
