    Not sure where to put this but just wondering have microsoft ever talked of releasing a handheld and if so is it coming any time soon?

    I'm thinking of buying a new handheld machine. I have a DS which I've lost interest in. So basically as it stands that just leaves me with the PSP which looks like a decent bit of kit but surely will have to be replaced in the next year or two.

    So basically any news of a microsoft handheld?
    When will the psp and ds be replaced?

    PSP 2 Announced
    In much the same vein as the PS3 needing to come down in price, the PSP needs... well, it needs games first and foremost, but a real, honest-to-goodness hardware update (you know, one worthy of a full number addition to the name) wouldn't be a bad start. We're going to go out on a limb and guess that come E3 this year, amid a flurry of first-party software announcements for the old PSP, the new PSP will be teased along with it.

    Now we're not expecting it to actually be released anytime soon (2010 at the earliest), but the announcement of a system with two analog sticks, a touch screen, solid state storage and the removal of the UMD (Sam thinks there'll be a utility to rip old PSP games for those that own them, and everything else will become a digital download on the next iteration of the PlayStation Store). A persistent online connection and tighter integration with the PS3 would just sweeten the deal, but we're going to go with some kind of PSP 2 announcement happening in just a few months.
