Sony makes some pretty resilient game consoles, and while you’ll certainly hear about the occasional glitch, they aren’t exactly plagued with RRoD. That said, there’s always room for worry, and if you’re willing to pay for peace of mind, Sony has a brand-new service agreement with your name on it. Dubbed the “PlayStation Protection Plan,” it simply extends the full warranty on your PlayStation 3 or PSP for another year or two, and optionally covers your handheld’s five-foot swan dive onto solid concrete for an additional fee. While replacement won’t quite be no-questions-asked and the warranty explicitly fails to cover dead pixels, liquid damage and loss of data (among other things), we can still imagine some will pony up the $30 to $50 for extra insurance. Not us, though. Since you can only buy if you’re still within the original warranty period, it won’t help us replace our backwards-compatible 60GB PS3… and honestly, we think we’ve had enough of Sony’s protection.

HTC is following up on its ultra-sexy touchphone, the Touch Diamond, with the new Touch Diamond2, which seems quite worthy of the title of successor. This time around there’s much more room for screen, with a huge 3. 2-inch 480 x 800 LCD up front, and around back there’s a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus. The other main addition is a “touch zoom bar” below the screen — just like on big brother Touch Pro2 — which we presume provides expected (and welcome) functionality. There’s a…
