Sony Confirm New PSP-3000 Shipping Date for Europe

Sony chose the Leipzig Games Convention to confirm that the latest
iteration of the PSP, namely the much speculated about Sony PSP-3000 -
which appears to offer a brighter screen as well as a built in
microphone and out-of-the-box Skype support - will hit European shelves
this October.Additional to the brighter screen, which will also offer
less glint to aid viewing the display in bright light theย PSP-3000's
display will also offer more vivid colour reproduction whilst the
dimensions of the device will remain wholly unaltered. Oh, and there's a
new 'PS' button.

Hardly a revelation, by anyone's standards, but if you're looking to
avail yourself of the new PSP-3000 and you happen to live in Europe
you'll be pleased to know that you'll only have to fight the sheer
anticipation of it all until October 15th.
