Now a comment on the article:
Tomorrow you'll hear them saying that they have no plans to stop producing the fatter psp.

And a side note:

But I have to say, not real happy to hear that they aren't going to continue selling the existing model. Makes me think that any future upgrades with firmware will be few. Any future improvements will probably be focused on the new hardware. ]]>Jul 15th 2007 5:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/SHOULD.

The only reason to buy an old one now is for homebrew...but I guess the new one will be hacked sometime...

The tv out doesn't do it for me. I'll skip on this one as I already have the PSP(1) and PS3 working together quite nicely. Plus, I have an iPod with video too. And, if you encode your stuff properly, you can encode your clips once and use it on PS3, PSP, and iPod with video. So, I'm set in that area.

So far I'm not convinced to "upgrade" as I don't think this would be such an "upgrade" to begin with. I'm not putting it down. I'm just not very convinced yet.

19% thinner new model = 19% fatter old model

How is that not the same thing? Is the glass half full or half empty? (the glass is still filled halfway)]]>Jul 16th 2007 9:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/19% fatter = 1.19*0.81 = 0.9639.
so no it is not the same.
very basic math.]]>Jul 16th 2007 9:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 16th 2007 10:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/
The new PSP being 19% thinner than the old one doesn't mean the old one is 19% thicker.

Say, the old one is 100 unit thick. The new one is then 81 unit thick (19% decrease)

Now, 100/81=1.235 (3 d.p.) So, the old one has 123.5% the thickness of the new one.

Which means the old one is 23.5% thicker than the new one.]]>Jul 17th 2007 12:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/

Good. Now, all we need to do is get a few folks behind the scenes at Weblogs who don't actively despise Sony and insert pro-Nintendo subtext in every other blog entry and we're making progress.

LOL. Like that'll happen. N-gadget and Nintenstiq are, to put it politely, industry shills for Miyamoto & Co. And look out if you catch wise to that, because they're not stingy with the IP bans for those who point that out.]]>Jul 15th 2007 7:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Whoop-de-friggin-do.]]>Jul 15th 2007 7:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 15th 2007 7:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/It has been the ones who hack it keeping the system alive.

just because the new psp is 19% slimmer, that doesnt make the old psp 19% fatter

go back to school and study maths.

Nintendo definitely ain't no Sony, which continues to sell Playstation 2 models alongside the Playstation 3...

(And old/new PSP comparison is obviously silly; Nintendo doesn't continue to sell original GBAs---remember those?---alongside GBA SPs, or original SPs alongside the "new-screen" SPs.)]]>Jul 15th 2007 10:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 16th 2007 12:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 16th 2007 12:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 16th 2007 2:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 16th 2007 3:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/15/old-psp-model-to-be-phased-out/Jul 16th 2007 5:35AM
