I am personally scared and excited for the new PSP.
Must have:
32 gb or larger hard drive - Expect this or higher, possibly 2 SKUS base model 32GB, premium/phone model 64GB
Netflix streaming - Expected since netflix app is appearing everywhere
Free 4G access (See Sprint-Kindle) - Expect it only for the premium/phone model, basic model Wifi on b/g/n network
Ability to Multitask - Can you elaborate on this?
Touch Screen - If it doesn't have at least a 5 point multi touch functionality, Sony might as well not bother releasing the PSP2
Built in Camera - Same as above, this is a minimum
Skype - Already in PSP1, so this is 100% sure
UMD Drive or connector for backwards compatability - Wishful thinking IMO, PSP2 will be BC with PSP1, PSN, PS1 and Game Archive and PS1 games through DD PSN only, UMD is going the way of the dodo. I do expect PSP2 games to be sold on read only flash cards.
Apps (Since the Apple App store is out, I would contact google and get droid support) - A given, I actually expect the PSP2 will have access to the Android App store, or Sony will have its own app store tab on the PSN store or both
Built in Microphone or bundle bluetooth headset - Microphone is already built in on the PSP, this is a given, as is bluetooth support since that was on the go, don't expect a headset bundle though
Dual Analog sticks - Expect it
Must be as hard or harder to pirate than the PS3 - Obvious
Highly recommended:
Trophy support - Given that MS is putting achievements on WM7 and App is having achievements on iphones, this is a given
Priced the same as the PSP GO - Ideal for the base model
Pre-bundled game - Maybe
Custom firmware detection - Highly unlikely
Facebook-Twitter connectivity - Highly likely
Will all of these features the PSP2 could be a direct competitor to the Iphone, you could make calls and text, take pictures, buy apps, watch movies and play awesome games with real controls. It would be much cheaper as well.
