Sony: 1 Million PSPs on Store Shelves

Doubling expectations, Sony says it will have 1 million PlayStation Portable units on store shelves for the device's much-anticipated US launch on March 24. The company wants to avoid encountering the same problems it experienced in Japan, where only 1.2 million PSPs have been sold due to very limited supply.

The PSP is a versatile entertainment device that offers 3D games, as well as the ability to watch movies and listen to music. Units will retail for $249.99 USD and will include several accessories along with the movie Spider-Man 2. Several other movies will be available in Sony's UMD disc format following the PSP's launch.
