The PSP2 is finally here. Sony revealed its brand new PlayStation Portable at an event in Tokyo today, giving us our first official look at the PlayStation maker's next bold foray into handheld gaming. Here are the first details.

Sony confirmed many of the features of the PSP2 that we've already heard in the form of leaks, rumor and speculation. The PSP2 features a high-resolution, touch-sensitive OLED screen that's larger than the original PSP screen, tilt-sensitive SIXAXIS controls, dual analog sticks, front and back-facing cameras, and a touch sensitive back panel.

The device features built-in WiFi and 3G wireless connectivity. Sony boasts that the new PlayStation Portable is as powerful as a PlayStation 3.

For now, Sony is officially calling the new PlayStation Portable by its codename, Next Generation Portable or NGP. It will be out this holiday.

1GB RAM and 4 cores thats pretty damn powerful for a mobile device. I want to hear more about the 3G though as who provides it(I don't think Sony...) will they team up with a 3G provider or is that something you decide for yourself?

Would be cool if you didn't need to have 3G, for those who do not wish to have it, and plus you could choose your own service package.

I'm really hope the battery doesn't spoil the fun (if you know what i mean)

If you either mean some sort of exploit, or it dies out too fast?

the battery drain too fast!
