Wasn't it supposed to go with the PS4's codename, Orbis?

I'm quite skeptical as to whether they'll have another handheld to be honest. Hard to see the outcome being anything different than the Vita.

Yeah, I can't see it happening. They barely even make games for the one they've got and they've made it clear their priority is the PS4 so I doubt they would want to waste any time making another handheld.


And Sony has Project Morpheus, they will try this market and forget the handheld market.

Prediction: Nothing will outsell PSP anymore (except Playstation home consoles)

I'd wager they named it that way because it represented a way to integrate PS gaming into daily life when away from console. That, and all the internet connectivity. Somebody did a good job pitching the name to decision-makers.
