lol lets play guess the amount of dots in the post!

lol anyway, im calling BS because sony had confirmed that they werent working on a remake like 2 weeks ago. Also a lot of those things like the 8gb onboard memory suddenly changing to 4 gbs?.

I mean come on.... sony will not make a portable system where its user accessed memory is free. Unless you count walkman mp3 players. The memory sticks and the likes are an extra source of income, they wont lower their revenue sources, they will only change or increase the the sources to increase the revenue created.

Sony are profit hungry. Nothing will change that.

Once again, I call BS.

Even if it is false, I'm still going to post it in my news forum:thumbup:

This new rumor sounds like more bull$#@! than the original one- it doesn't even make sense to consider changing the name from PSP other than some extension like 'slim'- since it is only a revised version..

New buttons for music/video skipping? Bull$#@!, that is lame and pointless- you already have perfectly good shoulder buttons for that, and a whole bunch of other button aswell.

It seems like a lame attempt to sound official by squashing the last rumor. It really just sounds like a child wrote it. (and I am not saying I believed the first one, but it did at least sound like it was written by someone with more than half a brain).

Yeah I am sorry, but having 2 conflicting rumors just disproves both. At least the prior one made some sense (LED screen because LCD is too bulky... Then again, I don't know if an LED screen is even possible...)

8gb of flash memory in the last one became 4? Come on. While Sony would want to maximize profits, 4gb is not enough if we cannot supplement it with our already bought memory sticks. Granted 8gb isn't all that much either, but its better than 4gb.

New buttons? Flip options? Haha sounds more like a phone and Sony just squashed that rumor...

Okey. thanks for your input emokid, you may leave for school now. There you will hopefully find someone to teach you this something very special called "grammar".

On topic: Sounds like bull. Then again I would not buy it because I already have one. Also I would tell my friends to not buy one (They like my PSP because the see me running emulators and WIFI applications, which are all homebrew).

the possible inclusion of bluetooth would offer a ton of possibilities over the current unused infrared port (homebrew apps for bt keyboard instead of ir? or an earpiece for supposed phone capabilites?). as for an led vs. lcd screen, i just want something without "red-shift" during video playback. was "the incredibles" ever released on umd? that would be a blast to watch (wonder how good of a job xvid4psp can do to correct that issue).
