Specs include a quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor, 5-inch touchscreen OLED display with 960 x 544 resolution, dual analog sticks (not nubs as on the current generation), 3G, WiFi, GPS, a rear-mounted touchpad, the same accelerometer / gyroscope motion sensing as in the PlayStation Move, an electronic compass, and cameras on both the front and back. There is also a good chance that these bad boys will be available by the end of the year.
Games will come on "new media," not UMD anymore. There is a dual analog stick combo on a portable device, and the pixel count is way more than the original PSP. I must note that I haven't heard any mention of flash memory so I guess only time will tell on that one. I for one am concerned about the price. With those specs and after watching the trailer I have no idea what to expect as far as cost. I do however know that I plan on having one because it looks and sounds FANTASTIC!
