There have been rumors about a new PSP from Sony for quite some time now. Well, it seems that some of these rumors will finally come to fruition, because there’s talk that Sony will be unveiling the new PSP Go! at the E3 conference in June

The revamped Sony PSP will ditch universal media disc media (UMD), but will feature a built-in 8GB or 16GB flash drive for storing games on board of the console, reports 1UP web-site. The design of the new PlayStation Portable will also be considerably dissimilar from the available system.They also state that the new PSPs will feature a d-pad, an analog nub. and face buttons that slide out from under the screen. It’ll also get an integrated webcam, a larger (touchscreen?) display.Of course, we know very little about the new PSP at this point. 1UP believes it will be called the PSP Go!, in line with Sony’s brand of Go! add-ons for the PSP.

Naturally, Sony refuses to comment on the speculation and the picture shown here is just an unofficial mockup. Should the rumors hold up, Sony will make the announcement at E3, launching the PSP Go! in Japan in September with the US following suit in late October or early November.
