From what I've heard, the 3000 or 3001 model could just be a repackaged chipset to lower costs. There's also talk to the HOME button being relabeled to a PLAYSTATION button. No new features have been confirmed, but with Sony discontinuing the extended battery pack, maybe this new model will have improved battery life.
Also there are very few online titles that have voice... I think Socom was one of them. If you are a Skype user, you can use the headset for that too. Oh but there's another rumor that the new model will have an integrated mic.
PSP is a fine little system, I play a lot of Hot Shots Golf on it. (But not much online.) And the Remote Play is handy to start PSN downloads (when there are decent ones) on the PS3 without having to stop what I'm doing and switch my home theater over.
