Good news everyone… (imagine Prof. Farnsworth voice)
On a PlayStation.Blog post by John Koller, it is noted that the PSP-3000 battery life isn’t going to suffer like previously mentioned.
Quote:
Hi, everyone, there have been reports about the battery life of the new PSP system (PSP-3000) being shorter than the current model (PSP-2000), following an interview we recently did with Gamespot. I’d like to make a correction and clarify that the new PSP will have equivalent battery life to the current PSP, about 4 to 6 hours for games and about 4 to 5 hours for UMD videos. While the enhanced screen of the new PSP draws a little more power, our engineers in Japan worked to reduce the power consumption of the overall system including its components, so you won’t have to worry about losing any time when enjoying the more vibrant visuals displayed with the new PSP.
So there you go. Thoughts?
Remember, this will be out next month!

Which is still crap and makes no reason as to why buy the PSP 3000 when it has no extra battery life than 2000 … its total bull crap… psp 2000 users wont even give a shit about the new one..

Good to hear its not less battery life after all. But why not more battery life? I’m not convinced. I doubt I will buy a new PSP-3000, well in a month we will find out if its hackable or not.
I think I’ll wait for the PSP-4000 lol

I love it when “corrections” and “clarifications” are completely reversed statements. It sounds more like there is a reduction in battery life, just not (what Sony considers) a substantial amount to warrant all the attention it’s getting.
