Nerevar- You know the PSP Slim has a smaller battery but lasts as long as the PSP phat battery. Use a phat battery on a slim and it’s double that. The PSP was a technological marvel when it came out because of all the power it had. Battery life was a concern but they handled it pretty well. I think in 3 or 4 years time they can pull off the same thing for the PSP2.
The PSP Slim has power save options too and different screen brightnesses that can increase battery life.
The iphone I was reading up on and it is roughly 3x or 5x more powerful than the PSP and the battery can last a day on the internet. It probably wont last as long playing games because it was designed for music, movies, and a phone but that shows what can be done.
Quick comment.
Trust me, limitations, whether cost limitations or technical ones. Will ensure the PSP2 won’t be as powerful as the 360 or PS3. Trust me on this. but it will still be damn impressive. It will prob have 256MB of RAM. And a 1.4Ghz processor.
No, the PS3 and 360 technology will be cheap by then. It’s already dropped several hundred dollars.
The system will probably be $300 and expensive.
The real problem is the media format and the amount of memory needed to make games like that, which is big hurdle to deal with because small portable discs just don;t have that much memory.
The battery and everything aren’t a problem.
