Sony leaked some of its plans for the PlayStation Portable, including an update due to ship Thursday, July 27. The v2.80 firmware release adds RSS video support and - a first! - a demo of World Tour Soccer 2. The company revealed it has no plans for a keyboard accessory, though a future hardware revision might eventually improve the PSP's built-in speakers and analog stick. Sony also trumpeted that UMD movies haven't failed entirely since Sony Pictures and Fox still have new titles on the way. Then again, maybe that's a bad talking point. You could flip it and note that everyone else - Disney, Lion's Gate, New Line, Paramount, Universal, Warners, heck even Image and Troma - abandoned ship...
