Sony are still expected to introduce the world to the new PSP this Thursday, but rumoured details are beginning to leak – the latest? The PSP2 will 3G support and feature an OLED touchscreen.
According to Andriasang, reporting via Nikkei, the PSP2 will not be able to make phonecalls, but will work across wireless and deliver online via 3G on the Docomo network in Japan.
This is a step in the right direction for Sony and the PSP brand, but we wonder if it’s going far enough – we’re still confused as to why Sony would develop a PSP2 and a PlayStation Phone seperately. Why divide the market? In order for the PSP2 to compete the iPhone, the iPad and the 3DS as a mobile device, it needs to have its own point of difference, or be an incredible catch-all device.
Hopefully, we’ll get more details by the end of this week.
