Sony Considering Totally Free PSP SDK

Develop asked how Sony’s new Minis scheme plans to draw developers away from iPhone’s free SDK. Sony stated that their PSP Dev Kit that’s currently priced at $1500, may someday be completely free.
“Further down the line, we may investigate a totally free model or supported model,” replied Colaco.
While a free Dev kit would definitely bring a flood of games to the handheld, including a pile of iPhone ports, I’d be seriously concerned about the quality of the games. I’ve been told by numerous iPhone owners that the quality of titles on the AppStore leaves much to be desired. A more popular comment I hear is that shopping for apps is more fun than the apps themselves.
