Sony Stops UK PSP Importer From Selling

- "Online retailer ElectricBirdLand ordered to stop selling handhelds with immediate effect" says gamesindustry.biz.
- Sony said that importing and selling PSPs would "very significantly impact the excitement and anticipation of the market and the way we can exploit that in the run-up to the September launch."
- The defendant claimed they had sold £11,000 worth of PSPs to Sony employees but Sony's lawyers say is not relevant to the case.
- It is only an injunction for now while the case is finished. The next hearing will be on July 18.
