PS One Shipping

Sony Computer Entertainment quietly released its streamlined version of the Playstation yesterday. Sony intends for the PS One to supplant the existing model of the original Playstation, maintaining the Playstation's price point of $99. While the PS One is one-third the size of the original Playstation, Sony stops just short of calling it "portable," preferring the designation "compact." The console ships with one Dual Shock controller, connector cables, and an "AC adapter for portability," according to Sony. A four-inch LCD monitor for the system will be available in the near future.
