Sony Delays PS Vita Launch In The US & Europe

Some disappointing news for American and European consumers today, Sony's Kazuo Hirai has confirmed the delay in the release of the PS Vita portable gaming console that was said to be released later this year, will be pushed back for an early 2012 release in the US and Europe. Japan on the other hand, will enjoy the PS Vita before Christmas pulls in this year. Seems only fair. The PS Vita will be available at aggressive price points starting with a WiFi-only model for $249, and a WiFi + 3G model for $299.

US to Get HTC Desire

 

For all those US people looking across the pond at the HTC Desire longingly will now finally be able to get their hands on the HTC hit in the UK and mainland Europe. The Desire will be available on US shores in August but instead of being with on one of the "Big 4" carriers, the HTC Desire will be on "select regional operators," and HTC was quick to say that the HTC Hero has been "well received in regional markets." The HTC Desire has similar specs as the Nexus One with a 1GHz Snapdragon Processor and running Android 2.1. Expect a Froyo update soon.
