Walking along streets, in a university campus, or wait for bus in a bus station, we can see so many young people are playing a small device in hands, but it is not mobile phone. What is it?

It was called PSP that stands for PlayStation Portable. This small device has games, music, video and many other features and belongs to multifunctional handheld series that is developed by the Sony Company.

PSP was unveiled on May 11, 2004, at a Sony press conference before E3 2004. The PlayStation Portable is the only handheld video game console to use an optical disc format, Universal Media Disc, as its primary storage medium. Some distinguishing features that people can see from the console are large viewing screen, robust multi-media capabilities, and connectivity with the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, other PSP and the Internet.

As with the full-size PlayStation, which can play DVDs and audio CDs as well as PlayStation game discs, the PSP is more than just a gaming handheld. The PSP plays games in UMD format, but UMD format is also used for movies and other audio-visual content, and the PSP can play those, too. ...

Due to the storage space storage space is very large, it is almost 1.8G, and in addition, with the PSP's huge display screen, a lot of film companies launched a UMD movie program, which is similar to the price of DVD.

Movies on UMD will retail at a price "less than a DVD", which is just as well when you consider that UMD discs will almost certainly not be able to store video of the same quality as DVDs. In a move obviously designed to help get the movie studios on board, the device will support region coding for movies, but there's no word as yet on whether this will also apply to games.

Although the PSP has a good audio and video playback capabilities, it still treats the game as its main function. PSP UMD can be inserted special game. In addition, there are download at PLAYSTATION Store selling PSP exclusive games and PlayStation games, they are stored in the Memory Stick and activate the game from there. There are also some of the software trial version available on the network. PSP-200x and subsequent models can be output to the TV screen.

Nowadays, PSP has already so popular among young people, and the price is not very expensive, so more and more people buy it for entertainment.
