As expected, PSP news was few and far apart in this year's PlayStation Day conference in Europe. One thing of note: the Go!View video download service (exclusively available in Europe) will be available on June 30th. PSP owners will connect to a PC in order to download videos to their PSP systems. Content will be available on a pay-per-view basis, and through subscriptions as well.
