I expect it to be less successful than the PSP. The original PSP launched with all the confidence of the PS2 behind it. Confidence isn't everything, but it is, to some degree, a self-fulfilling prophecy, and it was a huge benefit in the early years of the PSP. Everybody just assumed Sony would sweep the handheld market off its feet like how they waltzed into home consoles, and developers and media planned accordingly
The PSP2 won't have that confidence. All the confidence is already invested in Apple and Nintendo. Sony has to change the nature of the game, and that's never an easy feat.
