Domains and online reports suggest the Next Generation Portable – Sony's PlayStation Portable successor – is called the PlayStation Vita.
Vita is Latin and Italian for "life".
GamesPundit brings word from a source that NGP's formal name is PS Vita, and provides an image containing the logo.
Adding authenticity to the Vita name is mention of it on a Sony developer subdomain called
Vita.SCEdev.net, noticed by
Joystiq.
