| | | Rumor: PSP-3000 adds built-in mic and PS button

Originally Posted by Joystiq You're allegedly looking at the inside of the PSP-3000. If it looks familiar, it is. A second hardware "refresh" will supposedly borrow heavily from the PSP-2000 design with a few key upgrades, according to the PSPChina.net forum (yeah, it's in Chinese!). A user there cites "reliable sources" and demonstrates his claims with picture evidence, suggesting that the PSP-3000 will feature a built-in microphone, a PlayStation button (in place of the current "Home" button) that parallels the one on PS3 controllers, and a thinner metallic ring on the back casing (all pictured after the break). The poster claims to have no knowledge of an internal hard drive or flash drive, but confirms the UMD drive will almost surely remain in place.
While it's difficult to nail the complete picture of this rumor working only with clumsy translations, we've noted a few possible additions to the details above, including a modified USB input and supposed pictures of a black model (now removed). The possibility of cell phone integration (beyond Skype compatibility) and some vague references to a "touch-screen" and RMVB support are likely just wishful thinking, as are reports that PSP-3000 is already in mass production. We'll keep you posted as the story evolves. |
Discussion? It's still pretty unclear if it's true, though.  |

| | | Thanks for posting this, but the truth is this is too little too late for the psp. It is a crappy handheld device and that is all there is too it.

| Yeah,I agree. I found the PSP to be overpriced,especially without a wide variety of games for everyone like the GBA or Nintendo DS...I bought one and I really regret it..It's very chunky and hard to use in my opinion.

| | If you hack it then it becomes awesome. Imagine playing gba games on a bigger screen.

| | | No longer a rumour and it sucks so bad! I got mine some months ago and I hate the freaking glare on the screen... Annoying!!!
>_> Why did they make it so shiny in the first place?
...Oh yeah so that they could make a 'better' model later and then people would buy it to replace their old ones!
