Sony PlayStation boss, has confirmed that the will not be using as its operating system.

Hirai explained that the NGP will use a completely new proprietary gaming-dedicated operating system. It's not Android and it is different from the operating system too. It will use a a modern framework similar to the PC.

From this it would seem that is committed to making PlayStation content available on Android platforms but there will be no Android content available for the NGP.

Hiraz also confirmed that the NGP would support general memory cards but did not give any details of what format or formats it would use.

Thanks Andriasang.
