Exclusive: PSP x-rayed!

T3 shows you Sony's sexy handheld as it's never been seen before...

When Sony's PSP gaming handheld came streaking down to earth, like a fireball from the future, we skipped jubilantly over to the smouldering crater to gawp at it with the rest of the slack-jawed locals. We lapped up the ginormous, pin-sharp screen and marvelled at the PS2 quality graphics. But what mysteries lay inside that slim and foxy body, we wondered? Well, here's the answer. As you can see, behind the screen there's a sprawling motherboard, and behind that, the pop-open slot for the UMD disc. To the right of the screen is the battery, and to the left are the D-pad and the analogue stick. She's a beauty, pa!

PSP launches in North America in a couple of days, on Thursday 24 March 2005 for $250 (£130).
