Sega Vision, touted as the PSP killer, will be released next year.
PSP killer?
Sega will next year launch a portable media player boasting enough functionality to threaten Sony’s PlayStation Portable
The PMP is to be called the Sega Vision and it’ll work as a videogames machine, in addition to playing films. The unit will feature an integrated camera for capturing still images and video. A built-in TV tuner will provide yet another form of entertainment.
Hmmm… This is certainly interesting to watch as Nintendo is coming out with the new DSi.

According to QJ and PlayStation Blog, Sony has released version 4.00 firmware for the portable gaming console, PlayStation Portable.
The new firmware will allows users to search in the XMB interface via Google. There will be a new Internet Search icon under Network icon. There will be a history of past 20 searches. So you will have your favourite searches in an instant.
The new firmware also you to change viewing speed during playback of videos stored on your Memory Stick PRO Duo by simply pressing up or down during the video playback.
DivX support did not come with this firmware. Disappointing.
Recently, I formatted my 4 GB Memory Stick and it has since lagging and transfer speed is horrible.
1.7 GB of stuffs took 45 minutes to transfer.
The reason: The memory stick is formatted as FAT32 file system and it caused all the slow reading and writing problem. Formatting your memory stick in the PSP will result in the FAT32 file system, at least for my PSP Fat. I don’t have a PSP Slim to test it.
The fix: Format your memory stick as a FAT file system and it really improves in transfer speed, significantly.
All you need to do is to run Command Prompt. Window - R to open the Run Dialog and type “cmd” for the Command Prompt. To format the memory stick as FAT, type “format ms: /fs:fat”, where ms: is the memory stick drive.
Before you do that, make sure you backup your SAVEDATA!
