» tbh..
there should be an R1, R2, L1, L2 buttons and 2 analogue sticks. this would make the controls of games much easier to use. but thats just my personal opinion.. a cam, mic and mobile phone built in would be good too though =]

Blu-ray UMD's, 699mhz, 2 analogs, removable faceplates so we can change the colors, built in camera.
All that would drive the price up to maybe 350 for a value pack and a little bit more for the games.
would be nice though.
Oh and don't forget, linux emu!

yea i think it would fit, thers a large space for the right analog, and should be enough to add 2 more shoulder button on there without changing it much

Yes, that too would be great.
Why not incorporate all three options into a "sub-model" for the people willing to pay the needed cost.
A higher capacity flash NAND would be cool.

» A sub model would be okay, but ....
What incentive would there be for the game producers to actually code for it?
With the "base model" being the defacto standard, who would write for the enhanced model with the extra buttons + analog stick?
With original Playstation, it was easy for the programmers to incorporate the then new analog controller released by sony, as it was only the controller that required replacing, if there are two different PSP2's in circulation, the impetus would be to support the larger selling model, which would most likely be the cheapest one.

Might as well make the whole thing the exact same as a PS2 controller (L2/R2, 2 analog sticks, and PROBABLY L3/R3). I bet Sony probably would've done this but thought that maybe consumers would've flamed it for being a PS2 with a screen. But look at it now, everyone wants a second analog stick.
One suggestion that probably EVERYONE would like is for it to come with built in memory, like an iPod. If a video iPod has 30-60 gigs, why not a PSP? Also, coming with a longer lasting battery would've let the PSP unleash more power! As they say, if the PSP had a longer lasting battery, the graphics can look as good or even better than the PS2!! Oh yeah one other thing, hopefully Sony can work more on games than multimedia as that's mainly what the PSP was bought for.

If you wanted to spend $400+ on a psp with that much internal space, they could easily do it. Cost is the main factor here, as an Ipod already costs $250+, so add all of the features of the psp, and you get a $200+$250 or so, meaning no one would buy the psp ;)

» no two analog sticks
i think that ruins the portable effect. unless they can pull it off smoothly, like Sony does pretty well, than maybe. i think it would be cool if we can send our psps into sony for psp 2. get a little work done, then get it back. i just wonder how we will get a psp 2 or if we would have to buy it as a whole new system. probably a whole new system.

» Corrected Typo and additional opinion
5 options I meant.
@Anonymous Coward Who Really Has An Account
Plans/rumors for built in memory has been said.
I'd like to see the PSP 2.0 with as many functions as possible, as I'm a greedy tech pig. But of course with out losing the console's portability.
Functions such as the touch screen, dual analog sticks, flash memory, camera and microphone, mobile phone functionality could be built in without making this portable bulky. It's nearly 2007, we have the microtechnology to pull it off.

» My thoughts
Personally I think the PSP is great, and anything that would up the size wouldn't be appreciated. Before Sony alienates it's current user base by say adding a second analog in the next PSP I would like them to make one that just incorperates some of the peripherals inside, sine we will probably see a redesign first.
In 2-4 years I wouldn't mind a second PSP, this time with another analog but as for internal space it really isn't needed, memory sticks have been getting larger and larger in capacity and the prices have plumetted, when I first bought a 1GB ms it cost me almost $120 now I found one onsale at Best Buy for only $20, so buying a 8 or 16GB one should only cost about that when I feel like buying one next year.
Consider this, have you ever had issues seeing the screen? I have in daylight and I think a more visible screen would help. Currently I do fine with a screen protector and the backlight on max I can see it well enough to game during summer, otherwise I can't well enough to load game.
Another idea would be pressure sensitive buttons, they would make many games more enjoyable but not add to the overall size or weight of the system.
I would like a keyboard add-on for surfing the net and for taking notes, true the system isn't meant to be a laptop replacement but since many of the homebrewers already do just that why not give it to us?

um shouldnt it just be something that doesnt affect original psp owners... eg if it has a extra analog stick then they will more than likely develop games for dual analog's and what do original psp owners do now?
keyboard addon is a great idea... but i think it should be something you can buy instead, maybe the psp 2 should just have a complete redesign to make it look really nifty... or perhaps the analog stick can be simillar to the dualshock controller just smaller to fit the psp??

Problem with internal hard drives are they kill battery life unless they're a flash drive(no moving parts). Normal hard drives (think iPod) are also more prone to corruption when dropped shaken etc. If they were going to add a InternalHD it had best be a FlashHD so much better in every possible way.

2 Analogue Sticks? and how exactly would this benefit the psp?a lot of games only use 1 stick, hence why sony only fitted 1 in the first place, it would make more sense (and cost less money for them) to just make an extra clip-on type stick that utilizes the usb like the camera & gps do, then make games with options to go with 2 sticks or 1. I think 1 stick is more than enough, although L2 + R2 shoulder buttons would be nice. All these "surveys" are being taken too seriously, you really think sony would give up on something thats cost them millions to produce/market so quickly?
