Euro Go!View PSP Video Service This Summer

At first concentrating on delivering video content solely to the UK and Ireland, the companies are in talks with content providers across Europe to expand the service across the continent. More details on the new service will be doled out at Leipzig next month. We'll have to wait and see what kind of content they deliver before making any real judgments, but this could be a really big deal for the PSP in Europe. As for those of us not in Europe or the UK...*hops* now do us!
