[wraggster]

Yesasia.com have today opened preorders for all the new colours of PSP Slim that includes the Felicia Blue, Ice Silver, Ceramic White, Lavender Blue and Rose Pink.

They are retailing at US$269.99 [~£133.83] and come with free shipping (but they dont ship to europe/UK)

Heres some info about the slim PSP for those who didnt know:

The PSP Playstation Portable revolutionized handheld gaming when it was first released back in 2004, and it's now been redesigned! Sony has improved their landmark handheld gaming console, adding new features and refining others. The new PSP is now 33% lighter, weighing approximately 189 grams, as opposed to the previous model's 280 grams. The new model is also 19% slimmer, reducing the PSP's thickness from 23 to 18.6 mm. An attractive Felicia Blue color scheme completes the PSP's slim new look.

The new PSP possesses more than just cosmetic differences. The unit has an increased RAM of 64MB (up from 32MB), and includes a new feature to temporarily store data from UMDs, thus reducing loading times. Battery life has also been increased, and the addition of a video-out port allows PSP owners to play their favorite PSP games on an external monitor. Now games, UMD movies, and media saved to the Memory Stick Duo can be played on a full-sized television! Another new innovation is the ability to charge the PSP via the USB port. Simply connect the PSP to a PC or Playstation 3 with a USB cable to initiate data transfer or charge the unit.

Until it can run unsigned code I'm not going near one. No matter how pretty they are.

Thats way over priced. NCSX was offering them for $209. I bet play-asia will offer around $200-$220.

Way overpriced!!! Anyway, I'm not gonna buy one until I am able to run homebrew and emulators on it...

Until this baby can run homebrew, I'm not touching it!

I'll just wait until they come out at best buy or something. if anything I'll get a core pack. everything else is too expensive and has stuff i don't need.

Ice-Silver for me. Will get one and keep it at the firmware it comes with (3.60) I guess, and hope that an exploit or Pandora battery can be developed for it.

It would be great for the PSP Slim to give a renewed buzz for the PSP platform for SONY. And renewed activity from long lost coders would be exciting too.
