Sony is partnering with AT&T, which powers the nation’s fastest mobile broadband network, who will serve as the exclusive service provider for PS Vita in the United States.
By having both Wi-Fi and 3G/Wi-Fi models available, PS Vita will enable infinite possibilities for you to “encounter,” “connect,” “discover,” “share” and “play” with your friends wherever they are.
Partnerships with other mobile partners will be announced at a later date.
What is the official name?
The official name will be PlayStation Vita (PS Vita). “Vita,” which means “Life” in Latin, was chosen as the name for our next-generation portable entertainment system because it enables a revolutionary combination of rich gaming and social connectivity within a real world context.
The PlayStation Vita was codenamed the NGP when it was first announced.
How much will PS Vita cost?
It will cost $249 / €249 / £229 for the Wi-Fi version and $299 / €299 / £279 for the 3G version.
When will PS Vita be available?
There will be a phased roll out from the end of the year 2011 throughout all the SCE regions.
