We know a slimmed down version of the PSP is coming... but when? And what will be changed in terms of hardware? Several sources close to a popular gaming blog indicate that this slimmed down PSP will be unveiled next month during E3.
Supposedly, the revised PSP will sport a new LED screen that will deliver an ultra-crisp image in a smaller, more compact size. Space isn't the only savings you'll get though, this new LED will reportedly use much less battery power, thereby increasing battery life up to four times longer than that of the original PSP. In addition to these features is a faster UMD drive, retooled D-Pad, and 8GBs of internal flash memory.
How much will this set you back? Only around $170, Kotaku claims. Everything else sounds 'right', but the 8GBs of flash memory... sounds too good to be true. E3 is quickly approaching, so we'll know for sure if these claims turn out to be true very soon.
