Looks like either Sony are still pulling our legs, or some menu developer has been a little bit over-eager. Discovered by ShopTo, there’s quite a few references to “PS Vita” and “Vita” in the source code of Sony’s E3 site just now – take a look.
We’ve had a quick attempt to try to ascertain the links and structure but our efforts have gone without reward – any pages that you’d expect to be there from the HTML simply aren’t, or at least aren’t live yet, just returning elaborate 404 error pages instead.
<li><a href="/ps3/index.htm">PS Vita<span class="reg">®</span></a>
<ul>
<li><a href="/psvita/features/index.htm">Features</a></li>
<li><a href="/psvita/games-and-media/index.htm">Games & Media</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
Hardly confirmation – many are just treating Vita as the codename – but it’s interesting regardless. Let us know if you manage to find anything.

I was soo hoping it wasn’t called Vita :-
Vita is something you say on small chic cars
It’s name is similar to a woman’s snack, Ryvita
BUT then again I remember how EVERYONE took the pi*s out of the “iPad” as it sounded gay and something a woman would use but look at it now, no one cares so I think VIta could be ok and I hated it at first.

To be honest they can call it whatever they want IMO i will still buy it. I wasn’t crazy about the name for the Wii but i still bought one.

I wasn’t a big fan of Vita at first but the more I hear it and read it I like it more and more.

I think the CTRL-F tagline refers to finding “Vita” in the code.
