Elaborate please.

This thing looks ugly as hell. It's like they took the Go and made it 10X uglier.

I just do not get this design at all. There are no analog sticks, no pause, or select and then WTF are the two circles on here.

If this thing played PSN titles, then I can see it being cool.......but I doubt it does that.

There are pause and start buttons and the analog sticks are turned into analog touch pads, which seems to me like something that is a good solution to not having the increased thickness needed for sticks.

There's no reliable AT&T service in my hometown, thus making an AT&T phone extremely useless for a majority of the time.

Sony's taking one helluva risk here with this device.

This device will be rooted and people will find a way to install the PSP app on other Android devices. Hopefully it won't even run if you don't have the exact hardware.

There are pause and select buttons on the pic you posted. And you can't really have analog sticks on a slide out phone so there are touch pads.

As for looks, it looks fine to me. I'm interested in it for sure. I'm just waiting for more info to see if it's something I'm going to get or not.

I did not even notice that those were touch pads. I see that the select/pause are on the side. That is cool. I don't think I would give up my iphone for this.

Touch pads are not nearly as nice as analog sticks anyway considering they have no physical feedback and no auto center. I'd much rather keep my iPhone and just get a psp go lol.
