Griffin’s PSP Accessories
Griffin Technology, maker of various iPod accessories, is bringing a similar revolution in gadgetry to the Playstation Portable. The first three PSP products will be the iTrip, iFM and SmartShare. From the press release:
iTrip
The iTrip has become synonymous with the iPod since it was first introduced in 2003. Letting listeners send audio wirelessly to their stereos has made the iTrip product family the most popular iPod accessories in the world. The iTrip FM Transmitter has now been reinvented for the PlayStation Portable. Offering a sleek, slim design that slides securely onto the bottom of the PSP quickly and easily, without adding bulk, the iTrip’s easy to read display sends audio right to your radio. Rock your game, movies and music through your own home and car systems and you’ll never go back to the stock speakers.
Price: $49.99
iFM
The iFM Radio Tuner and Remote Control integrates FM radio tuning and remote control functionality to the PSP, all in a tiny enclosure. It features a large, easy to read LED for FM tuning, a pass-through port for headphones, and a clip for comfortable use. The integrated remote includes essential controls for easy media playback and functionality. Using the single button switch, listeners can enjoy their favorite FM stations or control music right off their PSP.
Price: $49.99
SmartShare
The SmartShare is a headphone splitter with individual volume controls. It is ideal for watching movies on a PSP as it allows you to share the experience with a friend - perfect for car trips, plane flights, and waiting rooms. Now you can share your audio, not your volume preferences.
Price: $14.99

Phosphor: Free Game of the Week
Phosphor, a beautifully rendered, 3d multi-player browser-based first-person shooter, is not only an impressive game, but it’s also 100% free. The game, developed by Rasterwerks, is in beta so it’s not without its problems. Apparently the mouse locks up in Firefox when playing, but despite the minor issues, the game is a stunning feat. It’s well worth your time, so check it out!
Note: this bad-boy takes plenty of load-time AND you’ll need to have Shockwave 10.1 to run it (which should auto-prompt if you don’t have it).
