We reported a few days back on the recent FCC filings that showed a 480mhz speed for the PSP Go. Unfortunately, the reports proved to be slightly incorrect as it didn’t refer to processor speed, but instead USB transfer speed. Well, shit.

It looks like Sony upcoming UMD-less portable won’t be any faster than the current PSP-3000 on the market today. It stands to reason that we won’t be seeing any performance increase until Sony unveils the PSP 2, which can’t be that far off. My personal opinion is that the PSP Go is a stop-gap product to test the waters for the PSP 2, which will be completely digital distribution. I have a feeling we’ll see the PSP 2 in about 2 years on store shelves.
