Live GM Christina DeRosa has told Joystiq that the service’s Silver members may be granted limited access to Last.fm for free.

“Silver users will be able access what we’re considering a trial period of three hours a month, which comes with video advertising,” she said.

“Gold users will have unlimited ad-supported access, so they can use it 24 hours a day. There will also be a premium offering on a subscription basis from Last.fm, that will be commercial free and will also have more sophisticated personalization features, like Loved Tracks.”

Last.fm launches on 360 this autumn. Thanks, Destructoid.

As promised, the silver DualShock 3′s gone on sale in the US, as listed on EB and Amazon.

No word on Euros getting it as yet.

EBGames.com has a listing for a Silver Dual Shock 3 it says will ship on June 24.

It’ll cost you the same as the black one – $54.99 – but at least Sony’s shying away from the “you can have any color you want as long as it’s black” mentality.

Thanks, D’toid.

Remember how white and silver DS Lites are now being discontinued in the UK? It’s obviously because DSi’s launching in April, right? Of course it isn’t. It’s because retailers don’t want them any more.

“Correct,” said Nintendo when we asked the firm if the colours were being pulled.

“Because retail are not ordering them anymore. We don’t stop selling things that sell.”

Conversely, we were told by a UK retail source earlier this week, “The white SKU is one of their most popular colours and we were at a loss as to why they’d finish it, until you remember that the DSi is appearing in white very soon.”

We say nothing.

SCEE’s launched its trio of new PSP colours in the UK.

The white, red and silver handhelds were announced early last month. There’s some nice pics through here.

GameStation’s doing bundles for £140, if you’re interested.

Do you buy hardware just because it’s a different colour? Live in America? You’re in luck.

According to this DS Fanboy story, a Metallic Silver DS Lite will release in the US on September 7.

Apparently this is the seventh DS colour to release in America. Believe it.
