The next PSP won't be arriving until 2011 but here are a few tidbits of information about the device to whet your appetite.

Last week there was talk of Sony introducing another PSP at E3 this year. The evidence, based on nothing more than whisperings from game publishers with increased Q4 marketing budgets, wasn't exactly strong, many saw the PSP2 as a way for Sony to redeem itself and make up for the PSPGo. Today, we have more evidence that the PSP2 exists and according to these reports, the device is a powerful machine.
VG247 has more information on the PSP2 and cites a source familiar with the matter that said there's just a one percent chance we'll see this thing revealed at E3. "Multiple British sources" say PSP2 NDAs have been in place at UK publishers for months and state that though they were aiming for a 2010 release before, it's looking like a 2011 release is more likely. As a result, sources are citing a Gamescom or Tokyo Games Show launch in 2011.
The device is said to have a touchscreen but retains the traditional PlayStation buttons. VG247 was told the device is "f*cking powerful," and based on a four-core Cell CPU. Another said he/she would be "amazed" if there was any physical media involved and VG247 reports hearing sketchy rumors that this device could be 3G and WiFi enabled as opposed to the WiFi-only PSPGo.
Though there have apparently been "finished units" in the UK, no one they had spoken to had seen a final version.
