*phew* After that awful press conference I thought Sony had lost all sense, nice to see they still have a little bit left.

Edit: H264 high profile support is in!

Great technical specs! Wow, what a machine for the price.

Just hope the games are there from day 1. Thing is going to be so damn awesome.

Awesome, more ram than the PS3/360. This will realy help to keep it competitive in the mobile space.

This just makes it more curious why Resistance had such awful textures, after seeing that footage I thought it had definitely got downgraded to 256mb.

Fuck yesssss!!!!!!!!!!

Ahaha, screw the RAM discussion. Now all we need is continued software support.

Wav but no FLAC??? Hrmpf, okay.

Why not throw 1gb in it? Cell phones are coming with that, and I'm sure the extra room would help in the long run.
 
I wonder if that's Lithium ion polymer or just Lithium ion...

Yeah, but it's not like cellphone games have access to even a fourth of that RAM. Vita is a dedicated gaming device, so games won't take the backseat to the browser or OS background tasks.

Hmm, I guess RAM is the only new thing in there? I was kind of hoping they'd list battery life too but didn't check in my haste to post.

Anyway, I wonder if Yoshida was so sick of Twitter complaints that he asked them to include this at the next opportunity ;)
