Ahem, me be a PSP... thing!

Have you ever wanted your PSP to be able to upscale images to 720p whenever you feel like connecting it to your HDTV? I mean, if it can be done, why not do it, right? Well, funny as it may seem, there aren't a lot of devices helping you do that and you end up having to play PSP games on the same 480p resolution that you were playing before. Not anymore, my friends, not anymore because we now have LKV8000 PSP to HDMI Converter. Curious to find out more? Oh, I know you are, so keep on reading.

The LKV8000 PSP to HDMI Converter does not only put the screen from your PSP onto your HDTV but also doubles the resolution, upscaling graphics to 720p and also allows you to play in true full screen mode. Curious how the upscaling takes place? Well, while I won't be taking you through the long and tedious process of image doubling, I will tell you that the scaler seems to be able to do its job quite nicely while Motion Compensated 3D Wavelet Video Coding Technology will permit you to view fast images without jitter or tailing of any sorts.

The device features a port in which you plug the PSP, called PSP In, and includes PSP Component Video and Audio L/R and HDMI out for you to connect your HDMI display. There's also an audio out port that allows you to connect it to your speakers or headphones should the AUDIO integrated with HDMI not be what you desire.

As for the PSP, it is short for the name PlayStation Portable and represents Sony's response to gamers' wish to have a good portable console that not only can play current generation games but also represents a good way to watch media files while on the go and do a lot of other interesting things as well.
