After months and months of gamers begging and Sony promising it would happen, Sony has announced their plans to bring the Playstation Store to the PSP.

Previously, PSP owners had to purchase content either through a PS3 or PC, hook it up with a USB cable, download an installer for their PC, and could only then get items onto their PSP. That's all set to change sometime this fiscal year.

And it's about time too. Sony has revealed today, during a Strategy Meeting in Tokyo, that the PSP will finally be getting direct access to the PSN Store. That means no more having to deal with cables, memory cards or PCs. Good news for Mac lovers. It also means that you'll be able to download content from any WiFi hotspot. Pretty tasty.
