In Sony's recent press conference they talk about the new Ceramic PSP
It will launch in Europe next week, free downloadble content via wireless hotspots, a 20 title platinum range on June 1st at €24.99 as well as more information on the location free TV service. This seems odd that this stuff is exclusive to the new PSP, unless this stuff becomes avalible for the black PSP's as well, I don't think that there is more than a colour change. Quote from press relese: "Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) today announced the expansion of the PSP™ (PlayStation?Portable) line-up in Europe with the introduction of a new colour, ‘Ceramic White’, effective 15th May 2006. The ‘Ceramic White’ PSP extends the already well-established design credentials of PSP, with a clean and elegant look that will prove attractive and appealing to a wider audience of beauty, fashion and style lovers.
