For the moment, at least, you'll be looking forward to news about the NGP – the Next Generation Portable." ARM® Cortex-A9 core (4 core), SGX543MP4+, Front and Rear camera. Rear touch pad, GPS.

    Putting a touch pad on the back is actually rather clever.

    Actually I'm surprised that it was Sony rather than Apple that came up with this idea. After all, touching up the rear is much more likely to "go down" well in the Apple fanboi "camp".

    Remember, Sony made sure to kill off the use of PS3s as part of research clusters by discontinuing OtherOS-capable models with a false excuse and later pulling the feature outright on even refurbished older units with current firmware.

    They don't give a damn about research, they just pretend they do to get free advertising and public karma.
