Sony PSP Gets GPS Receiver Add-on

December 8th 2006 | Games Consoles

If you’re planning to trek out to uncharted territory and don’t like getting lost, then the answer may be within your PSP. Sony has released its GPS Receiver add-on for its handheld game system, which adds navigation functionality to the PSP.

With the lack of touch-screen functionality on the PSP, its GPS usability will likely lag behind those of GPS systems with easier input methods other than using the d-pad. Still, Sony’s offering represents one of the cheapest entries into GPS navigation, provided that you already own a PSP. The local price for this is 5,000 yen (US$43), but Play-Asia is selling the import unit to the U.S. for $59.90, plus $8.80 shipping.
