Well, well -- what have we here? Apparently, this PSP (developer's edition, we're told) was spotted at the Game Developers Conference in California attempting to showcase how well the gaming handheld could handle navigation. Unfortunately, the underground nature of the booth resulted in a slightly inaccurate reading, but we're sure it'll do quite alright under normal circumstances when it's (hopefully) loosed in the not-too-distant future.

Why doesn't that PSP have the GPS attachment? And WHY IS SONY TAKING SO BLOODY LONG TO BRING THE GPS THING OUTSIDE JAPAN TO NA! Is it that hard for a global electronics giant to allocate shipping of a 2 gram device?! It's been promised for over 2 years, and it's still not out here, as usual, Sony are keen to make stupid decisions that makes no sense whatsoever.

It does appear to have a usb connector in top of it if you look carefully.


I'm more bothered about the lack of GO!messenger software........................
