According to PCWorld Sony is working on a new model of the PSP, but this model will be a download direct based system dumping those miniDiscs called UMD's. I believe this is bad while being able to get games from the web is not inherently bad, making it the only option is stupid seeing as there are still people who cannot get high-speed internet where they live at. It seems to me to be a moronic idea to cut up your possible customers just so that you can embrace the in technology when you could build your system to download and take discs, this is just stupid.
