PS3 Slim gets an HD screen from Hori photo

I love me some Hori products, and this latest accessory for the PS3 Slim looks great. It's a screen that they call the Hori LCD Monitor HD 3. It kind of houses the Slim, and it adds a 1366x768 resolution, 11.6"  LCD screen to the unit, complete with built-in speakers (and headphone jack). That means that you'll get a solid 720p out of the unit.  When you're done, fold the screen down for a compact, desktop gaming unit. If you've got torne, you've got a sweet little television watching/recording rig.

This comes out in Japan on May 27th for 24,800 yen, or about $260.

Pretty slick! Not as slick as this, but still.

The PS3 Slim goes mobile (without Sony's help) [Cnet]

Integrate a Sixaxis into that and you've got Sony's newest handheld, the PS3P.

Nice!
... though in all honesty, for portable gaming I would just as soon use something a little smaller!

It reminds me of that screen you used to be able to buy for the slim PS1 all those years ago.

All I know is that I want one.

This would be really awesome as a portable system to have with you on long car trips, or in a camping wagon, without having to bring a whole television with you.

A PS3 is AC current. It's not portable. Why would you possibly want this dinky screen?
Here is a link for a screen twice the size for half the price.

this would be great for transpacific plane rides that have ac outlets in the seats. just plop that bad boy on your tray table and get yourself a gin & tonic and you're good for 22 hours.
