:heh: @ HDMI...

So if you have a big ass TV you're going to be sitting 4 feet in front of it playing a damn Vita game?

They should have had some streaming option where you don't need any wires.

I mean they still have time to get money from the ps3. I wouldnt release anyt I ing until 6-8 months before 720 if not even 4 months before. Besides wouldnt they rather use e3 for this?

They have yet to make a profit, sony ran through all their ps1 and 2 profits because of the ps3 :wow:

so...the vita plays movies...

That's useful for people who travel.

But let's be real, the main point of being able to use your Vita on an HDTV should be for playing games.

People have phones, tablets, laptops that can play video when your not at home that have tons of more functionality than a Vita.

I hope the memory card price drop and new firmware is true tho.

I do expect them to spend some time on the Vita in the meeting tho.

So this thread is much ado about nothing? :ohhh:
maybe the other stuff may come true. A 4G one would be cool for some(I dont even use the 3G on mine) and a new FW update and memory card price drop would be great too.

8 days to go.

First thing I thought of when I read the title.

The vita has so much potential but sony made some mistakes. First of all it should have had 4G from the jump...nobody is really trying to play online with a 3G connection :upsetfavre:

The memory card issue...not only Proprietary, but max at 32GB? For $100? :comeon:

I just want a 64GB or 128GB card...MAKE IT HAPPEN SONY
