The Sony PSP to get a direct access to the Playstation Store

Using the PS3 or a computer to download stuff to your PSP is probably not the optimum way of doing things. You understand it, and Sony does too, apparently. A new firmware is said to give the PSP the ability to browse and download content from the PlayStation store directly. It might be premature to imagine that it will be a shrunk down version of the PS3 store access. Although, it’s likely, we just don’t know. The questions are: when will it come out? and why did it take so long?!
