After posting the PC World rumour earlier this month saying Portable Copy was going to be hitting the PS3 and PSP last week (and then finding out that, no it wasn't) I got a hold of Sony to find out what the time frame looked like.
I'm still pretty psyched about the ability to download my Blu-ray movies to the PSP for watching on the go.
Sony told me that according to Sony Pictures they expect to release the first Blu-ray disc movies with Portable Copy "later this year", but that they don't have a specific timeframe yet.
The technology, they told me, is currently under development, so Sony is also unclear on whether a PSP firmware update will be required to get it to work.

That would be cool If It could copy blu-rays.
I think it would probably convert it to mpeg4 to view on a PSP.

yea that is what they are doing. they announced it at GDC i think
That would be cool to see the PS3 take a 25gb Blu-ray disk and copy it.It would probably have to reduce the quality for it to be small enough to fit on a PSP memory stick.
But then again,you could just save it on a PS3 and use remote play to watch it on a PSP.

yea it does reduce the quality of the movie to probably like 1gb.
