Sega Vision: up to eight entertainment features
The PMP is to be called the Sega Vision and it’ll work as a videogames machine, in addition to playing films. The unit will feature an integrated camera for capturing still images and video. A built-in TV tuner will provide yet another form of entertainment.
Sega Vision may also threaten Sony’s Reader range of e-book viewers, because books are listed as one of Vision’s features. The Sega PMP will also handle music and work as a voice recorder.

Sadly, none of the machine’s technical specifications have been revealed yet, such as which music formats it’ll support, whether there’ll be on-board storage or how many megapixels the camera will have.
Sega told us that Vision will be launched in the UK at some point early next year, but a price hasn’t been set yet.
However, if you like what you've heard, then a handful of working models – believed to be the only ones in existence in the UK – are currently sitting in a central London arcade waiting to be won.
I don't think Sega's much of a threat against Sony. Also, since this gadget's for real, it won't be as successful as the iPod or iPhone, or even the PSP.

Don't know why it is being compared to the PSP when it is more like an Ipod or something from what I can gather. The Zune can play games so is that Microsoft's answer to the PSP too? To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

According to that it can only play Java mini games (Actually to be exact it says it can only play ONE java mini game) so as far as games go that is even worse than the Zune or Ipod let alone a handheld gaming platform like the PSP.

I'm guessing due to the namebrand carrying the Sega name, people assume,associate,and lump it together with gaming.

Its gonna be a waste. There is no way they are going to compete with Sony. The best thing that came from Sega is Sonic the Hedgehog and that is not saying much.
