Your prayers have been answered. (If you're a PSP junkie.) The G-Lab crew got all up in Sony's grill today and had a nice long fondle session with the newer, lighter, more colorful PSP. (Big thanks to Patrick Seybold for letting us check it out.) Hit the jump to see the specs and find out what's different and what remains the same.

So we rocked that PSP like the proverbial hurricane. And you know what? Not a whole lot is different from the last iteration. There are a few incremental changes, though, that make the little device worth checking out. Physically, it's 33% lighter (weighing only 189 grams) and 19% thinner (measuring 18.6mm thick) than the O.G. PSP.

Component cables: That's right kiddies, you can now hook your PSP up to a TV, and enjoy games and media in full 480p glory. No finalized price or release date for the cables yet.
