Yeah the online distribution model does seem most likely, though I still have to wonder how they'll keep things from being copied from unit to unit or the internet. Plus what about 3rd party games, I guess they'd have to work with Sony to get the game on their service, but you'd think a lot of companies would opt out just because they won't think the old games will sell that well.
For the e-distrobution thing, my guess is that you will have to register you PSP with your MAC address and the downloaded games will be tied to that MAC address
For the 3rd party issue my guess is that Sony has all the source code to any game on their systems (they do have to sign them some how), so the only big deal legaly will be with licensing (but they may have some deal already with that to, who knows).
