Possible new PlayStation Portal model pays homage to the Vita's OLED

While much of the focus on PlayStation's next steps is the PS6 and PS6 Portable , the two-year old PlayStation Portal could be getting a revamp according to those pesky internet rumours.  Update : Hints at pricing are around £/$250-299 for the new model, but everything remains deeply in rumours territory. Presumably the goal is to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners, something that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   The recent February  PlayStation State of Play  saw no announcement.

The game is already the most popular on PSNProfiles, approaching 8,500 players and the game isn't even out in the States until next week. Hopefully all these trends will continue then, and Europeans won't really be left hanging until November, just for minor language translations? If you can't wait the import is going for £45 on Amazon, may be cheaper elsewhere.
