PSP Camera and GPS

August 25, 2006



We have finally spotted some pictures of the PSP with a GPS unit attached and also the camera. No details have been given, but it’s a step forwards to these becoming available on the Sony PSP.

Edit: The GPS is now available at Play-Asia and costs $59.90.
The Camera is also available at Play-Asia and costs $49.90. The camera is not region restricted.

As we all should realise, the GPS and camera attach to the USB connector at the top and provide extra functionality to the PSP. The GPS unit will have software available for navigation, and I am sure Sony will have a few other tricks up their sleeves like for tracking by transmitting signals via wi-fi or something. With the power and connectivity that the PSP has we can expect some good things.

The camera also will be used as an Eye Toy for the PSP. The Eye Toy is a weird kind of controller that some find annoying, and yet others like my self find incredibly entertaining. It ads a new element of fun although I am not sure how it will convert over to the PSP format and it’s small screen. Maybe it will literally track your eye and your blinking patterns or something :) Anyway, I am rambling.

Enjoy the pics :)
