PS3 Slim Portable

[Demon_Skeith]

The PS3 Slim isn't just slim, it's also lighter than the previous model of the console. Which means it's slightly easier to take the thing on the road. Hence this portable gaming rig.

Built by Japanese peripheral specialists Hori, it's an LCD screen that attaches to the top of the console, and is able to display games in high definition (720p).

Sounds slightly stupid, but then, it doesn't just give you a portable PS3, it gives you a portable Blu-Ray player as well (and, for the Japanese, it's even compatible with the torne digital TV peripheral). One that can display stuff in HD, for those times you're stuck at Gran's house on her old 28" SDTV.

It'll go on sale May 27 in Japan, for USD$275.

I would so get a Slim PS3 just for that.

Well, I must admit, this new device is tempting to buy, but I can only imagine how damaged it will get.
For one, that screen is tiny, and I prefer my nice flatscreen to watch my movies on.
Secondly, I couldn't carry that thing outside without bumping it into something or dropping it.
Thirdly, Sony is making crap consoles right now and I can only imagine how many things could go wrong with this tiny piece of equipment.
And finally, no one should be hooked on technology enough to bring this with them anywhere.

Looks cool, but I think the screen is too tiny for me.

I don't have a slim but if I did I wouldn't risk carrying it about.

Sony so stole that idea from the guy that made a ps3 laptop.
