Sony- Not happy with PSP sales

Admin — Wed, 19 May 2010 21:20:19 +0000

We’ll all happily admit that, as great as it is, the PSP is losing the hype that it used to boast to the new consoles such as the PS3 and xBox 360. Now on its 4th model, many will agree that this portable console has had its time at the top.

Speaking a few days ago, Bill Glaser of Sony commented on the sales of the PSP:

”PSP was a little bit of a disappointment to us last year.”

“[...] We’re always looking into future platforms as well. Very premature to talk about future platforms, but R&D (Research+Devlopemtn) is continuing”.

Maybe we will see a fifth transformation of the PSP to come over the course of the next year or so, as Sony try and keep the console that this site is dedicated to alive.

The PSP: Is 4 Transformations Too Much?

The iPad: Worth The Hype?

They’ve revolutionised the MP3 Player. They’ve revolutionised the laptop. Have Apple revolutionised the graphics tablet computer iPod iPad?

The iPad , in my opinion, is no better than 4 iPod Touches taped together. The iPod Touch bundle would boast more functions.

: Apple’s New, ‘Revolutionary’ Product

What confuses me about the iPad is… well, that it’s just a bigger iPod Touch. Here’ a hint to Apple: if you want to make a new computer, don’t use iPod Touch software on it! You see, I think that the hardware of the iPad has much potential; it’s essentially a graphics tablet that’s also a computer.

The thing that gets on my nerves is that the iPad doesn’t support any graphics software! If Apple had put is on OSX Leopard, then this device would be the dream for any designer! But, possibly due to the discovery of magic apples, Apple make this into a bloody internet reader! Why?! There aren’t even USB ports!

What’s the real difference between an iPad and an iPod Touch? I can’t tell, to be perfectly honest with you.

However, if the Geniuses at Apple have a ‘brainwave’ and decide to put Leopard onto the iPad, instead of this inferior iPod Touch interface, I’ll be queuing up to get one! Apart from they would then probably double the price…

However, if the iPad does take your fancy, why not go and get a Free iPad at that address? It’s what I’m doing at the moment, because although the iPad is quite expensive, who could say no to a free one? I couldn’t.

New PSP Savedata Exploit Found

That’s right! Over at QJ.net, word is out that a team of PSP modders have discovered a new savedata for the console. It is reported to work on all PSPs, on 6.20 firmware, but this code is currently being kept under wraps, and only shared amongst top developers in the scene.

Will this be yet another exploit found by the modders to conquer the official firmware? Only time will tell.
