Apparently one of nVidia's (now ex-)engineers couldn't keep his mouth shut.
Sony PSP2 powered by nVidia's Tegra Line
The article is rather negative but this is because the writer is a little baised towards nVidia, sometimes he's right: bumpgate issue (dying 8000 series cards), GF100 (GTX4xx series) but sometimes he's wrong: GTX460.
Now, what exactly does that mean because knowing that it's going to use Tegra 2 doesn't bring us one step closer to understanding how well it'll perform. Well, that's what these VIDs is for.

The VID below contains alot of talking about the non-gaming parts of the chip but also a much shorter and (much more important) much clearer shot of the Game demo.

Quite impressive I'd say. It can push 90 milliontriangles/sec, which is double/triple that of N3DS' Pica200 which hovers between 30-40 million triangles/sec (conflicting data sheets) ontop of certain techniques the Pica200 doesn't even have. Im' pretty sure it can look quite a bit better because the footage is running at 720p, 4xAA at 60FPS, which just overkill on a small screen.
Here's a picture of it. It's quite large so I hope Sony actually manages to stay within the power envelope but so far it looks very promising.

this is an ex emplyees blogspot blog that is his opinion but as you said "sometimes he is right?
how does the word "confirmed" apply to what a former employee says in a blog so name something he has been right about and why we should believe this ...nut.
other than the negatives which seem to outweigh the positives as indicated by Teufelhuhn.
