Sony is bringing a lot more life to the PSP, unveiling new Go!Explore and Go!Messenger applications at this year's Leipzig GC.

I'd love to see a GPS satnav add on for the DS. The touchscreen input and dual screen is perfect for sticking it on your dashboard.

PS, the bloke presenting in the video was rubbish. I turned off before I got to see the actual item.

Yeh, that rings a bell, but I think you have to be in range of wifi as it sucked the maps off google. Not very useful on a motorway. That and my DS isn't hacked.

IIRC it isnt the DS thats "hacked" the hardware stays the same, its just a Flash Cart is loaded with the software.

I could be wrong.

which is apparently powered by BT

Get ready for a large failure, or spyware/bloatware

Also, i thought BT were working with Yahoo to do all their communications stuff ?

Talk about lazy Sony.
