I'm tempted to assume that /v/ finds this more interesting than /diy/.

They simply don't care. There is not much sony could do about it either.

The magnitude of bootleg and copied products sold and exported from China is astronomical.

This is just another drop in the Ocean.

I'm asking because if I were to design something with like this with a similar look, will I be looking at lawsuits?

It depends. If you want to produce and sell it in large quantities - you will get lawsuit as soon as you put it up for sale. If you build one (or few) for yourself, or friends or even made one for someone (and get payed for that) - you will get away with that. Well, latter is still kinda illegal, I guess, but who would find out about it?

lol then how the fuck do the guys who sell this do it?! its not a huge production but it is a commercial product. Anyone have anymore insight?

if this thing is from china then they dont give a fuck. look at the iphone 5 ripoff they are making. they said they were going to sue apple for copying their look since they technically came out with their earlier.
plus it has better specs

why not just install an android os onto your psp? I have a japanese psp-1001 that I softmodded straight out of the box, that would be a pretty nifty mod.

While that would be awesome, the PSP's processor is orders of magnitude slower than even the shittiest android phone

It's made in china. Who also make Land Rovers, Bentleys, Chryslers etc without the patents, just stolen. The chinese courts wont klet them be sued in china, and thats where they are sold - the company itself doesn't export them, so Sony can't sue.

333MHz as OC.

What in the fucking fuck, PSP-3000.
