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.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
... though in all honesty, for portable gaming I would just as soon use something a little smaller!
All I know is that I want one.
But not for the fat PS3... not so cool...
Here is a link for a screen twice the size for half the price.
