This article explains e-book could be read on a Sony Playstation Portable. This is interesting because Playstation Portable or PSP is a handheld game console. Most people today download e-book on their PDAs and cellphones. Who would ever think that we could download e-book on the PSP? However, there are some weaknesses about PDAs and cellphones. Some PDAs are expensive and people cannot afford to buy them. As for cellphones, some people have a difficult time reading on the cellphones because the texts are small.
It would be awesome if Sony adds an e-book reader feature in PSP. This seems like a great idea because it is cheaper than PDAs, the screen is bigger than the cellphone's, and it has long battery life. If PSP could be turned into en e-book reader, who knows if other game consoles such as Nintendo Wii and Sony Playstation 3 could do the same. It is a neat idea for people who already own a PSP and people who are interested to buy PSP because they wouldn't have to buy a reader device. They could play games and read books on one device. If Sony does or will turn PSP into an e-book reader, I believe it could be a great benefit for Sony and readers since PSP has many advantages. Playstation portable is affordable, has relatively good screen, widely availability and has long battery life.
