The PSP had nothing  to improve on though, but please show how conservative the NGP is?

It's conservative in the same way the PS3 was revolutionary. It uses an homogeneous and known architecture, really tested in phones/music players/tablets, only with more functional units.

The PS3 was not revolutionary, it was very powerful and loaed with technology. The NGP will be at least a Generation ahead of everyone else, it will bring graphics only seen on consoles before and no one  will able to come close for a while. 

It was revolutionary in it's concept. Heterogeneous processor,  with two different instructions sets, two different memory types, one of them serial, one of them parallel, at very different speeds and with very different latencies. That's revolutionary because it imposed a different approach to the development.

 

NGP will use a chip very similar to two A5's fused together, so a lot of developers will be familiar with it's architecture.

A conservative move would have been a dual core like A5, a  little more memory and the better control. It would have been still the most powerful handheld . And don't confuse the Cell being a migraine to deal with as being revolutionary.
