Portable Gaming, Sony-Style
A powerful gaming machine is packed into that small form factor. Inside, a 333-MHz CPU with 32 MB of RAM and 4 MB of embedded DRAM produces an audiovisual experience that rivals that of the PlayStation 2 home console, with detailed 3-D graphics and CD-quality background music. All this is rendered on a giant 4.3-inch wide-screen display with three different levels of backlit luminance.
But perhaps the PSP's most attractive feature is its price -- just 19,800 yen (about $190) for the basic set, which includes the system, a removable lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack and an AC adapter. A separate 24,800 yen ($240) bundle pack includes a pair of headphones, strap, carrying case and a 32-MB Memory Stick Duo. (Sony has yet to announce any details on the U.S. packaging.)
...The PSP won't be replacing the iPod as the digital listening device of choice anytime soon, mostly due to memory considerations. The largest-capacity Duo cards are only 1 GB -- and those are quite expensive, especially the Sony brand. We tested our PSP with a SanDisk 512-MB card, which worked perfectly and retails for around $80.
