New PSP merely a rumour

PSP News | Sony confirms.

John Koller, the Senior Marketing Manager for the PSP, has stated that the rumoured PSP redesign is just that, a rumour.

Koller commented on the new shiny Sony blog that "The rumor mill is flowing about new PSP hardware and a PSP phone, and I just wanted to take the time to clear the air. We haven’t announced anything about a new PSP, much less one that would have any phone capabilities. As SCEA’s resident PSP guru, I’m thrilled to hear that there’s so much interest in the platform, but sorry folks, these reports floating around fall into the rumors/speculation category."

All they really said is that they haven't announced anything... Which we already knew. If he was denying anything, it was the rumours regarding a "PSP-Phone," as opposed to the redesign with built-in flash memory, etc.

In any case, if they're not planning on a redesign, then the positive responses to the rumour should convince them otherwise.

Oh, and the PSP-Phone thing would be a stupid idea anyway.

I knew that this would be the case. I don't know why people get so wound up about rumours like this. I always try to avoid rumour reports as much as I can.
