European PSP announcement expected in the coming weeks

September still being considered, say publishing sources, as SCEE announcement looms.

Sony Europe boss Chris Deering has confirmed that the company's plans for the PlayStation Portable will be revealed in "the next few weeks" - supporting reports that the firm plans to announce a European launch date at E3. Speaking in an interview with the International Herald Tribune newspaper during a Sony corporate event in France this week, Deering gave no inkling of when the console will appear here, except to say that the announcement will come shortly.
