Looks weird. I'm going to hold judgment on how it feels but at the moment, it doesn't seem like the most comfortable handheld.

It's ugly as sin when opened, but I like it. It has potential IMO, but they still need to just make it the PSP2 with dual analogs (hell, the design is perfect for it!) and a beefier processor.

Interesting. That Ars Technica "mole" was correct. I wonder if that means a slim PS3 will be the next announcement?

EDIT: That analog stick looks unusable in its new location. WTF Sony...small is fine, but make sure the thing's actually good for gaming.

If this is under $200 and has a good launch lineup I think I might jump on it right away.

Is This and HDMI port? Or maybe an expansion port, for an external UMD drive? Or maybe you can plug your PSPgo into a kiosk with that port, insert your UMD and transfer it to your memory card, then trade in your UMD version to where the kiosk is, and you get a downloadable one tied to your account

From what was said a few weeks ago, they said the PSP Go should end up CHEAPER than a full PSP.

It should've been flipped around so the control side covers the screen when shut. That's something I've always hated about the PSP, it's like a crystal figurine just waiting to be dicked up.

Makes sense, less moving parts = cheaper to build. In addition, we are losing on option to play UMD games already released.

I hope that this means they'll also start beefing up their classic PS1 lineup like they have in Japan.

It's obviously not meant for man-hands but it can't be as bad as the iPhone's controls. I'm just worried about what's going to happen with my current UMDs. Lord knows I'm not paying full price twice for the same thing no matter how much the entertainment industry wants me to. :p

Where are the volume buttons? That thing looks tiny and uncomfortable to hold. I can't imagine the shoulder buttons being easy to use. Smaller screen than the PSP. I'm glad I have a PSP-3000.

Whats the point of the PSPGo? The PSP, imo, was/is an utter flop, why make yet another rev of a POS?
