Just like a slimmed down E3, Sony has taken the fat off its PSP handheld console. The changes are pretty subtle, trimming 91 grams from the original 280 grams, while slimming down to 18.6mm from its 23mm thickness. In addition, gamers get a video-out port that lets them play their games and video on a big screen TV. The new PSP also boasts the ability to store game data from UMDs temporarily, reducing load time which was often a major complain from PSP users. This redesigned handheld console has not yet been named, although I'm pretty sure PSP Lite won't be one of the choices. It will arrive in Japanese, North American, and European shores this September at a yet undisclosed price. Choose from Piano Black, Ceramic White, Ice Silver, Felicia Blue, Lavender Purple, and Rose Pink colors.
