Do you remember when Sony re-designed the PS2 with a smaller form-factor and a thin design? Remember how it sold out everywhere like wildfire and still sells even to this day? Well Sony remembers this and now is doing the same with its PSP. SCEUK head honcho Ray Maguire confirmed this rumor and says that although the console will become thinner and (as 99% of tech writers say) “sleeker”, the screen size will remain unchanged.

As for a release date or production time frame, Maguire kept his trap shut for the time being. So you’ll have to wait it out like a real man for once.
