Sony's slimmer, lighter, redesigned PSP landed in our PC Magazine Labs today, for us to have a final hands-on look before its release here September 10th. My initial impressions were positive after spending time with it earlier this month, but expect a full-blown review detailing specifics like the new TV out option, plus how it really compares to the original, very soon. Ok, I'll drop you one morsel of info: you cannot play games in interlace mode (see third image below), meaning that those of you hoping to game on a standard definintion TV that does not support progressive scan, are out of luck. Here are are few images of the PSP's new TV Out function to tide you over until then.
