Sony has announced that they are planning to release the 1Seg Tuner for the PSP, allowing you to watch digital TV using your PSP. The device will attach on to the PSP’s USB port like the Go! Cam and the GPS transceiver. The only drawback is that the tuner will be exclusive to the new slim PSP model (PSP-2000).
