With the history of how Nintendo and Sony estimate performance, I would expect the PSP2's battery life to be 3 (1) hours while the 3DS's will probably be closer to 6 to 8 hours; Nintendo's estimates tend to be based on "real world" usage while Sony tends to report their best case scenarios.

With that said, with this system announced I would expect it to be released later than people think (2) (mid 2012), cost more than people are currently imagining (3) ($350 to $500), or for Sony to be hemorrhaging money from hardware losses (4); and (potentially) some combination of the three (5).

Above we have a post that has several oppinions on future Sony actions and performance the tone of which can be summarized as follows:

(1) - negative

(2) - negative

(3) - negative

(4) - negative

(5) - negative

Do I see a trend there?

You may not like it, but Happy Squirrel's post will most likely turn out to be true.
