Free whitepaper – Hands on with Hyper-V 3.0 and virtual machine movement
Sony shook hands with Vodafone today, naming the network its "preferred provider" of 3G for the PlayStation Vita in Europe.
The 3G version of PS Vita - which launches [1] in the UK on 22 February next year - will come with a Vodafone SIM card and a PSN voucher for a free copy of WipEout 2048 [2].
While Vodafone is yet to announce exact data plans and pricing, the 3G Vita will touch down for £279.
Last week, Sony revealed a few bonuses for those who pre-order the console. These include, blue in-ear headphones, discount on games and various PSN avatar goodies. For more information on Vita pre-order bonuses [3], visit the official PlayStation blog.
You can see what we thought of Sony's next handheld in our PlayStation Vita hands on [4] here on Reg Hardware. ®
