Sony's slimmer PlayStation Vita coming to the UK for around £180, pre-orders start today

Alright, so perhaps we took Sony's invite to its London PlayStation event a little too seriously when we speculated Vita TV news was on the agenda. Although it's not technically the "slimmest" PS device, Sony's brought us here to welcome the late-2013 PlayStation Vita iteration (aka the PCH-2000) to UK shores. Thinner, lighter and generally better than it's predecessor, this is the first trip for the new Vita outside of Asia. That plane ride ain't free, though, as the circa £180 price tag (around $300) is a significant mark-up on the cost of the handheld in its homeland (18,980 yen; around $185). Pre-orders for the device start today, with the proper launch penned in for February 7th.
