there is a lot of room for improvement. the analogue sucks, and it hurts my hand when I play, DPad sucks too.

they'll split that large screen into two smaller ones. Hmmmm....probably align them one on top of the other and give one a touch screen! Teh Innovation!!!

I don't think they'll change the dpad, because it seems to be a standard Playstation thing now. The square button could use some improvement though. I think it was a little problematic because it's too close to the screen.

now if the redesign can improve the joysick, the d-pad and the L and R buttons plus have a HD and better battery life and a couple more good games (god of war already helps the cause) i think i might grab one. Oh and be affordable, am i asking for too much?

I heard that they will be going away from the "gaming handheld" and more towards a "handheld media console" I have no link just something I read on another website, not sure where.

Debunked. Again.

And how many times has a PSP redesign been confirmed since the beginning of 2006?:|

Agreed, give it better ergonomics, more battery life via smaller/more power efficient chips, a lower price and more/better games (like recently announced GOW + Castlevania X) and I'd buy one.

The improvements sound cool, but if sony want to have a chance they better avoid a Q4 07 release date .

Well I personally wouldn't mind a fusion of the D-Pad and "Control disc" like they have on one Colecovision controllers for instance, its much looser and responsive than any D-Pad I've used. Heres a link to the image if you want to see what I'm talking about: 8002 Digital Controller PSX

The PSP needs more than a redesign... it needs to focus on it's strengths cause it has many weakenesses exposed

all they had to do in the first place was make two analog slider thingies and it would have blown the ds away. you could play some great fps if there were two of those analog things, but NO. they only gave you one, and it isn't even on the side you usually use to aim.

a smaller PSP will likely mean a PSP that's not any cheaper. maybe they can shape it to be more comfortable without shrinking it too much.
