New PlayStation Portable ready to launch E-mail

The E3 Media & Business Summit in Santa Monica this week saw Sony announce the new slimmer PSP, now they have dated its release, initially in Japan.

Obviously the PSP has been in the Gym lately as Sony have redesigned it to be 19 percent slimmer and 33 percent lighter. 

The new PSP touts faster UMD load times and a TV-out facility that will enable playing of games as well as media content on the "big screen"

Sony have also announced the launch date of September 20 for the Japanese market at 19,800 yen (US$162  AU$185)

Pundits cannot help comparing the PSP with rival Nintendo's DS hand-held gaming machines, but in many ways the PSP is a true hand held multi-media gadget that sets itself asside from pure gamine comparisons.  Price is obviously a factor, but a new reworking of the PSP architecture should help sales.
