How will the PSP work with PS3?

Sony has released some details about how owners of the PSP handheld will be able to use it with their PS3 console and the news is OK, but not great. From launch, PSP users will be able to stream content from the PS3 to the handheld using Wi-Fi. This can be movie clips, music videos etc. However, that means the streaming will be limited by range – around the house possibly, but certainly not outside. Unfortunately, that’s it to start with.

There will be no support at launch for streaming downloaded PSOne games from the PS3 to the PSP, nor will the PSP be Pspps3 able to be used as a second wireless controller for the PS3. Sony has committed to making these features available over time as upgrades but, unsurprisingly, it has not committed to any firm dates.

In the future, PSP owners will be able to download content over the Internet meaning they’ll be able to access content on their PS3 from wherever they are, using broadband.
