If the rumour that Sony are purposely releasing erroneous information about the PSP2 in an effort to identify any whistle-blowers still in the company is true, expect to hear some truly outlandish claims about the successor to the PSP over the coming months.
One such new nugget of potentially spurious information regarding the handheld is how much memory it’s packing. According to Kotaku, the device will sport a monstrous 1GB of RAM. To put that figure in comparison, both the PS3 and Xbox 360 have half that amount.
The handheld is also touted as having dual analogue sticks (if it didn’t, Sony’s Tokyo office would probably be attacked on the day of the PSP2’s launch), support HD graphics, with a storage solution yet to be decided. Memory sticks have been mooted.
We’ve heard another tantalising rumour about the device, something not mentioned in Kotaku’s article, which we’re going to sit on a while longer in case the aforementioned witch-hunt in Sony turns out to be true.

I don’t see why it can’t have nearly as good graphics as PS3 because the original PSP came out about 5 years after the PS2 and has almost as good graphics as it did. and the PSP2 apparantly wil be out this time next year (about 5 years after the console again) so it must be possible.

And you have to remember that the PS3 is like 2004/2005 technology and the PSP2 will be like 2009/2010 technology.
