PSP 2 in the works with IPhone tech

Well, this is certainly interesting. While Imagination Technologies itself isn't going any further than to say that it has signed a licensing deal with a "major international consumer electronics company," EETimes.com is reporting that the company in question is, in fact, Sony, and that the deal concerns Imagination's PowerVR architecture being used in the successor to the PSP. More specifically, according to EETimes' unnamed sources, the PSP 2 will be using Imagination's SGX55x core, which itself, of course, still hasn't been officially announced either. As EETimes notes, if that turns out to be the case, it would certainly be quite the coup for Imagination, especially considering that its PowerVR MBX technology has already found its way into the iPhone, among other devices.

we all kinda know that psp2 is in the works, cause that would be foolish of sony not to think about the future.

You dont / wont hear about it because, why would sony be like "We are releasing PSP2 so dont buy the current psp"

TrevorPhillips6383d ago

PSP2 well this im definitely getting but i hope they have 2 analog sticks for fps games

Max Power6383d ago

2 analog sticks for any game.

likedamaster6383d ago

Yeah, I was hoping for that second analog stick this gen but next gen will do.

Raoh6383d ago

would be nice. I love my apple products.

2 imac's and a mini mac at home. 2 ipods (mine and my sons). 1 pc with no keyboard connected to my tv (i use it for torrents). 2 psp's. (one for me and one for my son)

i could add cards to music etc (android phones use cards as well).

The PSP needs a boost. but i dont think they should try to take on the iPhone. they might be do a better job taking over the sidekick market.

Sony needs to be careful. they make some of the best hardware known to us. but their penetration..

heh.. i said penetration..

is lacking mainly due to marketing and understanding of the needs of the consumer. (all around as i am a 3 time ps3 purchaser and soon to be four time)

if they can devour the sidekick community, they can hold market share with gaming device and phone while those new users grow up and become future high price device shoppers.

Software_Lover6383d ago

of all this lame touch technology. The only thing interesting as of late was that Microsoft demo (I forget the name)
I think its called touch, LOL (could be wrong)

Just my opinion. I know it amounts to nothing, LOL. I hate the tilt crap in the iphone also. just doesn't work right.

ThanatosDMC6383d ago

HAHAHAHAHAH!!! That was a great find! They dubbed that perfectly! I recommend for all to watch the video!

Danja6383d ago

that is pretty funny stuff...

but I really hope the PSP dont have a touch interface....just aslong as Sony includes 2 analogs this time...plus no touch interface...they can do w/e..else they want with the PSP 2.....

Killjoy30006383d ago

If this were to happen, I wouldn't be surprised at all.

ThanatosDMC6383d ago

I hope the new one would have more memory, faster internet, two analogues, full downloadable games since they'll be coming out with 32gig pro duos. They should make two slots for the pro duo sticks just to make sure. I hope it's not bulky and hopefully it's very powerful.

Killjoy30006383d ago

I just want an HDD and a fully functioning PSN with dedicated servers for awesome online play. Also, an OLED screen would be welcome. At least a 540p display would be amazing.
