Please note this picture is not a confirmed design by Microsoft. It is a mock-up.
Microsoft have confirmed they are in the process of making a portable gaming device to compete with Sony's PSP and Nintendo's DS as well as Apple's Ipod.
Dean Takahashi has confirmed the device, which is still far from release. The report states that J Allard will be leading a team that includes Greg Gibson (system designer for Xbox 360) and Bryan Lee (finance chief for Xbox business).
The device won't just be a convenient and portable gaming centre. It will also include other entertainment features such as video's and music.
Despite it being early doors in the manufacturing studios experts are already considering it an 'Ipod killer' even though the new Microsoft cash cow has more resemblances with Sony's PSP than any of Apple's unique, diverse and illustrious products.
Let's just hope that this device doesn't have any sort of ring on it. The notorious Red Ring of Death will not be welcome to stage any sort of comeback.
