The newly launched hand-held game console from Sony has some secrets up its sleeves. The Sony PSP seems to have a little nifty secret which allows PSP users to browse the internet with their web browser. Sony hasn't announced of any such integrated browser with the PSP, however, some folks managed to find the hidden treasure. In other words, Sony is working on some brand new communication software.
