The new design is 33 per cent lighter and 19 per cent slimmer than the
current version, weighs less than 250g and is under 20mm thick.
Sony has packed in a thinner and more efficient battery, 64MB of system
memory and video-out capabilities allowing users to output games at 480 x 272

scan TV.
The new PSP will be released in new colours with two limited edition PSP
Entertainment Packs for the US market.
PSP 'Ice Silver' will be included in the limited edition Daxter PSP
Entertainment Pack due in September.
Sony will also offer a collector's edition PSP 'Ceramic White' pack,
including a Darth Vader silk-screen on the unit, as well as the PSP exclusive

colours as part of this enhanced design to match users' personal styles and
