PLAYSTATION 2
Smaller,
Slimmer and Network Ready PlayStation 2
While inheriting the basic functions
and design philosophy of the current PlayStation 2 (SCPH-50000), the
internal design architecture of the new redesigned PlayStation®2
computer entertainment system (SCPH-70000 CB) model has been
completely overhauled, resulting in a slimmer and more lightweight
form. Internal volume has been reduced by 75 percent, overall weight
has been halved, and thickness trimmed down to 2.8 cm (thickness of
current model is 7.8cm). Its size is almost as small as a hardcover
book, making it easier to carry around.
Equipped with an integrated Ethernet
port for network gaming, the new PlayStation 2 sets new standards in
the fusion of design and functionality. Approximately 40 percent
(*1) of North American PlayStation 2 online gamers use dial-up
connections and to satisfy this base, the North American model is
equipped with both Ethernet and modem ports.
