I found an official Sony PSP wallpaper (for the
PC, I presume)...take a look for yourselves. You should notice what I found odd immediately.

Well, could this be for the upcoming GPS?

I THINK ITS FOR TEH INTERWEBS. Seriously guys, they prolly just used the wrong icon, its a commonly used icon for internet. Its called an "uplink icon" Besides, on your Devhooked XMB, tell me wahts in its place?

The odd symbol you see on the right side of the image is in fact the symbol Sony is apparently using for Feeds.

I notice that the page I've linked to specifies support for video blogs within feeds. Isn't this planned for 2.8?

Nevermind the video blog thing, the support is in the software, not the psp.

Now that would be the ultimate hand held system =]

That'd be a great system, but imagine the delay between requesting a website and receiving the data. It'd almost be as slow as the web browser the psp has.

Oh, wait...

Yeah. It'd be a great addition to the psp as an add-on device.

maybe, or just an idea of what itll look like

or maybe its a wallpaper that sony threw out before version 2.0, and the satilite icon might have been the icon they were going to put on the psp?
but some one had the idea of the globe, and that idea was better
maybe?

Dude, do people even read other posts in the thread other than the last?

This is from the same sony website the background comes from. Check the URLs, the domain is the same.

The mysterious icon, as I said not even 6 posts ago, is the icon Sony has created for rss feed support in their PSP Media Manager application.

Read the thread before replying please.
