PSP.Go has indeed been officially announced through Qore, it got leaked early by a day I think.
PSP.Go will be running on some wicked arse memory compared to the other PSPs, that's to make up for its lack of a UMD drive. (No UMD? Download-only content? Do I hear DRM coming...?) It's pretty disappointing since the original mockup had the entire front case as a screen and not only part of it, plus it was going to have an additional analog, they probably took it out thinking the PSP is better without it. It's going to be like a PSP3k Alternative or something.
What I think:
- It's a PSP rehash with a smaller screen and what seem to be crampier controls. Given the smaller size it has it probably has less battery life.
I'm not sure if the pirates will wanna crack this as they haven't made a homebrew that can load iso/cso files.
Well, the good news I can draw out of this is that this makes the PS3 Slim rumor sound more credible.
