PSP Extended Life Battery gets extended life

Oh, so it's not discontinued after all, you say? Well, that's good for anyone looking to add a couple extra hours of battery life to their PSP. Those looking to do so should check out SonyStyle, where a new model of the Extended Life PSP Battery has popped up. Though it's not yet available and listed as backordered (for $44.99), we know this battery is all-new, given the different model number (now PSP98560, was PSP-280) and PSP-3000 compatibility.

Apparently, someone on the PlayStation Forums has claimed to have already purchased one of these babies. If the forum poster is to be believed, then we can expect this battery to be just as bulky as its predecessor. Also, keep an eye on Sony's press conference next Tuesday; we'd assume that would be the most likely of places for more details.
