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.

Given the first one sold over a million across PS3, PS4 and Vita that seems a bit cruel. But I guess progress beckons, even if the Vita version managed 300,000 plus!
