iPSP: If Apple had designed the Sony PSP

[wraggster]

Everybody loves the designs that Apple is creating. But we also like and need other gadgets too.
I’m a design fanatic, and ifI’m honest, there are many great gadgets out there that we like. But if you be honest - is there only one gadget that has such a clear and nice design like the Apple products? I don’t think so..

My good friend Pilau send me this picture of the “Apple iPSP”. I think if the Sony PSP would look like this I won’t let her out of my hand :-).

For sure the design of your gadget is not all, the most important are the things it can do. But I think a little bit of that dream is in all of us?
What do you mean? Isn’t that nice? I hope the Sony guys are not envious

That’s what Spicu and friends want to see:

Sometimes I wonder why Apple hasn't jumped into the console market yet.

Maybe this is just my opinion, but the iPSP picture in the post is a big let down. I was expecting something beautiful, innovative, and just down right "Apple design sexy". This is not only a relatively bad Photoshop job, but it has nothing new to desire. Also, I doubt those buttons would allow enjoyable game play. I'm not trying to diss the author of this picture, but I just don't like the way it manages to make an iPhone look bad.

Sometimes I wonder why Apple hasn't jumped into the console market yet.

Totally agree. Maybe it's because they have no previous experience or reputation in the field (so far). Hey, Microsoft jumped in not too long ago, and man did they WOW us with the Xbox and Bungie's Halo:Combat Evolved. So many good memories.

If apple designed the psp....

They would charge $600 for it and give it a good mp3 player. End of story.

Not only does it look uncomfortable, it looks too plain. plus apple would keep updating the model each year....

I agree with Video_freak: Ugly.

Very ergonomic.

Ewww... Nothing like apple would make its too big for starts..

Apple have already got a gaming console, but its old school and rare as buggery. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Pippin

I personally agree that they need to jump back into the market. Notice how Macs do keep value over time and PC's just don't as they look crap :P. Funnily enough leopard still works on computers from five years ago.

Ugly.

Eh, I don't get the unconditional love for Apple, possibly the worst DRM company on the planet. They broke itunes, locked up their latest iPods etc. iPhone is nothing special either, Asian countries have had that tech for years now.

Not that I don't like them (iPod user), but Apple isn't as cool as they think they are.

If you gave me an iPod touch and a PSP, I'd pick the PSP in a heartbeat, so much more functionality and freedom and sexiness.
