Well, as some of you may know, there have been rumours of a "PStwo" (a smaller version of the PS2, like the PSone) floating around for the last few weeks and Sony has finally officially anounced it's existence. It's 75% smaller than the PS2 and will ship in both North America ($150) and Europe (150 Euros) on Nov 1. It will also include a built-in network adapter.

And now on to the DS...
The DS will launch in the US on Nov 21 (doesn't say when in Europe, though...) for $150 and will include a demo of the new Metroid Prime: Hunters game and Pictochat will be built into the hardware so you can "chat wirelessly with each other--right out of the box." The battery will last 6-10 hours (quite a bit better than the PSP's predicted 2-8 hours) and the DS will be unable to play GB and GBC games (but will play GBA games) so don't get rid of that GBA just yet. And, lastly, the DS will come in the silver and black models already shown (though multicoloured versions will surely be released eventually).
