PSP Slim officially gets TV Tuner

This is a cool idea for most people I guess, but I really wont benefit from this because I usually play my PSP in my room. If I want to watch TV ill just pick up my remote and turn of the TV in my room. Id rather watch TV on a 25" screen then a 4" screen.

are you sure thats the slim psp it looks like the normal one to me

hey any one have any sites how to get psp universal remote for V 3.40?

Even if it does work with the original psp I wonder if it's actually gonna end up being released in the uk?

hmm, if this doesn't work though, I kind'a wonder how this will make sony enough mony's , because developing and releasing costs.

and at this point, most PSP owners have the healthy PSP, not the anorectic version.

that would be crazy!!!!!!!!! lmao!!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if it's digital or analogue. and will it be compatible with the signal in the states

edit:
Never mind. It's digital. Anyway, I still wonder if it will rescale HDTV programming. That would be a lot of processing power taking place. Also, imagine software that would take the incoming DTV signal and capture it to the psps MS. Now that's an awesome idea. The PSPDVR. I LOVE the sound of that. You'd probably need a 8GB stick for something like that. OMFG, The idea is just WILD:eek: I'd get the 8GB and tuner just for that alone

It's the slim in the picture. The speakers are at the top.

That would be awesome! However, you would need a lot more than 8 Gigs. a 1-hour HD program is around 7-9 GB, with a 40-minute show coming in around 4 GB. Granted, often the actual show you are watching is about half that size, but stations transmit multiple subchannels on their HDTV over the air channels, so the PSP-DVR would need a setting to only capture the subchannel you actually want to capture.

When do you guys think we will get more info about this, I was planning on getting the Chotto Shot but I might just wait and see if I want this thing first. I' sure I'll end up buying both but I'm sayin whatever I get it will make my baller PSP even better (check sig).
