Chris Morris at CNN/Money has an interesting theory on Sony’s insistence that the Playstation 3 will “be expensive” — are they bluffing? The advantage would be twofold: first, set consumer expectation high, then surprise them with something much lower, driving a potentially much larger buying rush. Secondly, lull Microsoft into thinking they can get away with sticking an extra high pricetag on the Xbox 360, scaring off some of its potential buyers. The other potential reason for crowing about high pricing expectations might be to force Microsoft to make the first move, thus prepping consumers to get beyond the cognitive barrier of paying more than $300 for a game console. And, you know, it’s not like we would be shocked and appalled to discover than Sony totally played the media on this one — what do y’all think?

Attila has released a new build of the port of the Amiga emulator UAE with support although early for the Keyboard, heres what he says:
How the keyboard input works :
- Press AND(!) HOLD the [] - Square button.
- Press the Up / Down button ( on the left side of the PSP ) to change the selected key.
- Press the Left / Right to jump to the beginning / end of the keylist.
- Press the () - Circle button to actually "Press" the selected key. ( still holding the [] - square button ! )
At the moment no simultaneous key input is implemented ( like pressing a key while holding this and that ).
I know this is not what you had in mind, but it kinda works for now... ;-)
I am designing the proper GUI... etc...
Cheers,
Attila

Those of you in the UK (like me) and the rest of Europe are 5 days away from a console whos graphics will blow you away. You may be lucky and get a v1.5 (Homebrew compatible firmware) or you may indeed have to put up with a non homebrew PSP but dont let that put you off, the design of the PSP is jaw dropping, the first time you boot up Ridge Racer you will think your playing on a PS2 and in some ways the PSP is faster. The fact you can play and store Music, Photos, Movies and such things as all the PSP Magizines that have been released plus some excellent films on UMD and the possibility that the PS3 will be PSP compatible with a UMD slot that will be great for movies and be basically a place to play PSP on a big screen. (Now who told me that juicy info  ).
5 Days till you get your hands on a console that will amaze

I would like to know which hard drives will work with the nexstar enclosure that allows the Slim line Ps2 to have a hard drive. Is the 120 Gig the biggest one that will work? And also do the emulators run when I store it into the hard drive or does it run of a disc? And do backups and imports work if it is stored into the hard drive without having a mod chip? Thanks.

PSPet has released a rather cool InfraRed Remote Control app for the PSP, heres what it says on his site:
Install the proper version on your Homebrew compatible PSP
Run the program on the PSP
At the start page, select the device you want to control (RoboSapien, ICybie, Media Center)
Use the PSP as an IR remote control for that device.
The buttons are labelled on the screen with the commands.
Certain buttons (like LTrigger and RTrigger) can act as shift buttons. Hold those buttons and new options will show up. Keep holding the shift button and press the regular button.
When pressing a command button, aim the top of the PSP towards the device's IR receiver
Press HOME to go back to the main screen to change devices
Press HOME again to exit the app

Got a nice email when i just got home with a new emulator for the PSP, the emulator is an Atari 2600 emulator for the PSP which is a port of the rather great Stella Atari2600 emulator. The coder who ported it is called Aenea, heres whats in the readme:
This is a port of the Stella Atari 2600 emulator to the PSP. Original code by Bradford W. Mott, Stephen Anthony and Jeff Miller and many others. This PSP port was made by Alysa Habraken (aka Aenea). It's not very optimized and not all games run or at full speed. Some have a little flickering, but this will be resolved in upcoming versions.
Heres some shots
Ive made a v1.0 eboot and stuck it in the Zip and also you must read the instructions ive posted to get it to recognise roms
For a first release this is a great one

The PSP and Nintendo DS have yet another rival to worry about and this time its none other than the newest version of the GBA in Micro Form, heres the news article from <a href="http://www.lik-sang.com/news.php?artc=3676&lsaid=219793" target="_blank" >Lik Sang</a>
sexy, no-nonsense gadget: Nintendo's latest addition to the GameBoy family, the GameBoy Micro will be the smallest Ninty handheld to date. After announcing the retail price and release date recently, Nintendo has now made public that they will introduce a new version of the popular Play-Yan peripheral, which lets you play MPEG4 movies and MP3 songs on GBASP, Nintendo DS and GameBoy Micro, now called "Play-Yan Micro". It will replace the current one being sold and will be available on September 13th, simultaneously alongside the system. Nintendo has all the specs on their dedicated Japanese site here. Enjoy your favorite videos and music on the go, pocketsize! On the train or bus, waiting for a friend to arrive or sweetly killing time on those long oversea flights, the GameBoy Micro is perfect for instant entertainment, wherever your travels may take you. Even more so with the beautifully retro Famicom Color version; celebrate Nintendo's glorious history with this cool edition, honoring Mario's 20th birthday! You can view two official TV commercials for the Famicom Color GB Micro here:
Because of the dramatically smaller size of the Micro, the unit comes with a new port included. Due to this, all previous link cables and charger units from the GameBoy Advance era will not work with the GB Micro without a special adapter. To remedy this, Nintendo offers the GB Micro Conversion Connector, which allows for standard GBA link cables to be used with the Micro. Another way to link up is the GameBoy Micro Communication Cable. Said cable comes exclusively for the GB Micro line, which basically is a custom link cable that works just like the regular GBA cables, but supports linking up to four GameBoy Micro handhelds without the need of an extra connector.
Wireless is the way to go in 2005, so Nintendo has another official peripheral in store for its fresh GameBoy incarnation. A special wireless adapter has been created just for the GB Micro. The device can communicate with other GB Micro or GBA systems that also have the wireless doohickey and a wireless-compatible game, such as Pokémon Fire Red or Leaf Green. Why use cables, when you can obtain the freedom this wireless solution offers? We are welcoming preorders for all mentioned accessories already, which are all scheduled to be available on the GameBoy Micro's release date, September 13th.
Sounds like both the DS and PSP Should watch out, check out our GBA Emulation site for all the emulators released for the GBA --> http://gbaemu.dcemu.co.uk

It is rumored that the PSP will be able to have certain capabilities with the PS3. I heard that the UMD movies will be possible to watch through the PS3? Will games from PSP be able to run on the big screen? Watch movies from the 100MNV01 file? View pictures? etc. etc. What are the possibilities/capabilties with the system?
Thank You All!

PSPide C++ is an application that allows to create projects of programming for PSP in language C/C++. For the correct operation it is necessary to have installed the PSPSDK Beta 1.0 and to have correctly formed all the correct path variables. The first time that we use PSPide C++, it will ask for these 3 paths:
- Path where we have installed the PSPDev, normally all we will have it in C:\PSPDev
- Path where we will keep all of our projects
- Route of the Kxploit

from gamespot
Despite that the major PSP firmware update was released in Japan just last month, Sony Computer Entertainment platform development chief Izumi Kawanishi was already discussing expansion of the handheld's new features a few weeks later. Among the topics touched at that point were Web-based game content, downloadable movies, and e-mail support. But apparently that was not all that was brewing at Sony's platform development studio. In an interview with Japanese technology Web site ITmedia, Kawanishi revealed even more possible plans for the PSP.
Sony's developers are considering adding Macromedia Flash support for PSP's Web browser in the future, as well as expanding Javascript functions. Kawanishi explained they need to determine Flash's performances on the PSP before coming to a conclusion. Kawanishi said that his team basically has an open stance toward network-related functions, and Flash playback was not intentionally ignored. On the other hand, Kawanishi explained that security issues prompted the team to leave out some Javascript support, such as allowing scripts to access the UMD. The PSP development team is planning to release a guideline manual for content providers so they can make Web pages catered to the PSP. Kawanishi is also considering disclosing the specs to the public as well.
When a Web page is displayed on the PSP, all data is managed in the handheld's main memory, Kawanishi explained. The browser does not use the Memory Stick Duo accessory to display Web pages (though it is technically possible), because as removable media, unexpected errors can occur if the stick is removed during use. Kawanishi added that displaying saved HTML files from the Memory Stick is technically possible and will be kept under consideration for future updates.
Kawanishi also revealed that Sony is already planning a number of USB peripherals for the PSP, and some should be announced in the near future. He commented that a keyboard and mouse are possibilities, as they will facilitate browsing the Web. The Global Positioning System device shown during last year's E3 is another possible peripheral, as it could be used with both the Web browser and PSP games.
The 2.0 firmware update gave the handheld H.264 MPEG4 movie-playback capabilities, and Kawanishi confirmed that he would like to add support for other formats. However, explained that some third-party formats cannot be supported. Instead, Sony's developers will be giving first priority to the most standard file formats. Kawanishi said there are also plans to support high-resolution and high bit rates, with plans already under way for the MPEG4-AVC format. In terms of audio, Kawanishi explained that the PSP supports AAC format, since it's standardized, and there's the possibility that the m4a audio format will be added as well.
When asked whether the PSP will support downloadable games, Kawanishi simply stated that the idea is under consideration. He also added that it would be interesting if users could develop their own simple games and distribute them online.
Kawanishi did not mention any release dates for the next update for the handheld's software in Japan or abroad. Stateside, PSP owners are still awaiting the release of Firmware 2.0, which lets the PSP browse the Web, among other functions. Sony promised that the update would be available the week of August 15.
