Any chance of this coming to PHAT PSP? Or is it not possible due to amount of ram? Thanks.

» Hey kid none of this stuff is useless
You do know that Sony is trying to make the handheld into everything put together as in being able to call people and such and GPS, camera, I see the PSP as a great device where I only need it and nothing else.
Oh yeah by the way, the reason they don't take location Free player out is cause the PSP and PSP SLIM is supposed to be an all in one device.
You will keep on seeing this from Sony because this is the all in one multi media device with everything and PSP2 will have even more stuff like a PDA and such.
Some of us like these features in our SLIMS, so don't be angry cause you got the bad end of the bargain. You should have gotten the SLIM aswell, since you have a phat. Slim is better in alot of ways.

» Someone_PR & YAMI ANUBIS X
I agree with you and especially with ANUBIS X's
statement about the "all in one multi media device".
I agree and I love it. This is what I've been waiting
for the industry to produce.
All the PSP2 needs aside from what the PSP-2000
already has, what's already set for future fw
updates, what ANUBIS X said about the PDA
functionality "hopefully a Windows Mobile OS" or
close to it and this list of upgrades:
Dual analog sticks
Four shoulder triggers
Built in cams Front/Back
for both taking photos and video calls.
Bluetooth
Higher sys RAM
Built in HDD and a "Higher Storage Medium"
like 64GB Pro Duo and up.
And while I'm at it I'll add one small thing :)
It's been on my wish list for a few years now.
It's called "LED Projector".
It's a Video Projection System that runs both
Cool N Quiet and Energy Efficient and happens
to be no bigger than a Chocolate Mint.
Something like that placed in the PSP or even
as an add on like the GoCam once was,
wait.... still is.
Then I believe you might be one step closer to
an "All N1 Device".

This technology is called several things:
Mini Projectors, Micro Projectors and Nanoprojector
"which you will find the best hits with".
Have fun checking it out.
and always think BIG!

yeah all this would be cool, but this has 2 BIG disadvantages:
1. the price. would be over 500 %u20AC ( or 750 $ or whatever, i don't have the exact exchange rate :p)
2. the battery. It will run out in like..... 2 minutes.... ok, that is a bit exaggerated, but it will run out damn fast.
