Abstract: To now where the market it dominated with Smartphone gaming like Angry Birds or Draw Something, it would almost appear as if real true handheld gaming is out the door. Then you see a device like the PlayStation Vita that has the ability to take handheld g...
Big, beautiful OLED screen, Lots to play, lots to watch, lots to do, A new generation of interactivity and interoperability
3G buy-in and usage adds cost, as does highly touted cross-platform play, Backward compatibility quite buggy so far, No Flash support, where have we heard that before
With nimble operation and an attractive, graphics-driven interface, the versatile PS Vita pulls together the high-quality gaming, movies, music and more that we should expect from a modern multimedia device. A clear emphasis has been put on the games,...

The screen is a thing of beauty, Plenty of speed and power, 3G brings a better social gaming experience
High cost, Proprietary charge/sync connector, No onboard memory, Cameras are average
