Sony Surprises With New PSP Bundle
Comes with bigger memory card, perfect for storing all your porn movies in one place.
Sony has been keen to push the PSP as a true multimedia device, letting you watch movies, play music and view photos. But just try to use it like this and you'll immediately see that the bundled 32 MB Memory Stick is woefully inadequate. Which is where Sony comes back in.
The company has announced a new bundle, the Giga Pack, which includes everything already in the regular PSP Value Pack but with a 1 GB card instead of the puny one included till now.
You also get a stand for the PSP, freeing up your hands while watching movies, and a swanky new blue box, so that moms out for Christmas presents don't pick up the wrong one.
And the best part? The Giga Pack will sell for just £214.99 - a mere £35 premium over the vanilla model, which, considering that most shops sell 1 GB cards for anything up to £100, makes the pack quite a steal.
Sony says the Giga Pack is a limited edition but didn't say how many it'll be making. Look for it to hit shelves just in time for Christmas on 28 November.
