Some reports have been coming out that Sony wishes to offer a cheaper non-value pack of their Playstation Portable. The initial price for the launch was 250 USD which did not see the PSP sell out within days of its launch. However, the new price is a lot more digestible and all it means is you have to do without a case (boo-hoo) and the Spider-Man 2 movie on UMD (that's a downside?)At $199, consumers could see a stand-alone PSP unit for sale, similar to the one offered in Japan at launch. The stand alone PSP includes only the hardware, battery pack, and charger, leaving out cases, headphones, and memory.
Currently, the PSP Value Pack is the only configuration in which the hardware is sold at North American retailers. The $249 bundle includes accessories like headphones, case, battery pack, charger, and a copy of Spider-Man 2 on UMD.
