| | | Consumer ? about the Sony PSP
Yeah, hi. I know the PSP isn't gonna be released in the U.S. for quite some time, but, I was wondering: Does anyone know if there will be anything available for the PSP that'll allow for it to be somehow connected to the tv; you know, just in case I wanna play my games on a larger screen (and please don't says "Just buy yourself a PS2 or something then...")? And also, you cannot play regular ol' PSone and PS2 games on the PSP can you?
THANKS! |

| | | Not sure if it has a S-Video out on the unit but you won't be able to play PS1 and 2 games, unless Sony releases an external drive?? The PSP uses a UMD disc and I think it's the size of a mini CD.

| | | Yes, precisely; a pocket PS2 for on the go (and no, I will not buy one of those damned slimline PS2s). |

Awesome stuff! http://content.aip.org/APPLAB/v74/i9/1329_1.html
"With this new medium, we achieve bit sizes of 10–50 nm, leading to data densities of 500 Gbit/in.2" a quote from the linked site!
Imagine a psp with that kinda technology!
