No UMD= fail.
They can switch to PSN for new games but they must keep UMD drive for keeping BC with current titles. Otherwise most people will not buy it.

I'll buy it, I remember pre-ordering my PSP back in what, 2005? I loved it. Sometimes backwards compatability isn't always the best idea. The DS will become outdated eventually, along with the carts. I personally thought the UMD's were a bad choice for the original PSP at first, but now looking at it, it was very smart. Now, with no UMD in the new PSP2, I'm very curious as to how they'll do it. I'm assuming PSN.

 

I assume Sony will state, "Backwards compatibility is last gen," like when they said the same thing with rumble.
