That doleful baying sound you're hearing? Sony releasing the hounds as all hell breaks loose. It seems someone just can't wait to collect unemployment, because these leaked high-res shots — ostensibly of Sony's unannounced but long rumored PSP makeover — look pretty darned convincing.

Of course that's what I said when I saw the Brachiosaurus in Jurassic Park.

Slightly predating the leaked shots: These new info bits, per a yanked (but resurrected) YouTube video of a Qore episode starring Sony Hardware Marketing Director John Koller.

- 16GB of internal memory, expandable memory slot.

- 43 percent lighter than the PSP-3000, making it roughly 108 grams. Nintendo's DSi weighs a comparatively chubby 214g.

- A smaller 3.8" screen (the PSP-3000's is 4.3"). The DSi's is 3.25".

- Bluetooth-capable.

- New games on deck, including Metal Gear Solid, Jak & Daxter, Gran Turismo, and LittleBigPlanet.

- No second analogue nub. Doh.

- Available this fall.
