So there was this big press conference at Sony headquarters yesterday to discuss the PS3 (which I will probably
avoid, $425 is too much) and the CEO had some announcements about upcoming PSP updates, including a new web browser.
The next PSP web browser will include official Flash support! Which means we can stop trying to hack the Flash Player
into the PlayStationPortable and just go with the flow. 1UP mentioned the inclusion at 10:42 AM PST yesterday. I only wonder if the player will be a
stripped down version or even just a modified version of the Palm OS Flash Player that was included with Sony's CLIE
product line. The release of a coming camera and GPS modules leads me to think that Flash developers may be able to
build full fledged RIAs that feature location based support and video teleconferencing. Now I just need to save up a
couple hundred bucks and grab on of these for 'work.'

update: our blog sibling Joystiq has the lowdown on all things PS3 and PSP
1. However, according from GameSpot.com report and the screenshots. They are going to add Macromedia Flash Player version 6.0... not the latest version I am afriad :( (not even 7.0 as well)
