The US debut of the PlayStation Vita is just a couple of weeks away, and with so-so sales so far in Japan, Sony is sweetening the pot for early adopters with some newly-announced bundle deals. Customers who pre-ordered the 3G version at $350 will get a free PlayStation Network game and 250MB of data from AT&T, along with the previously promised limited edition case, 4GB memory card and copy of Little Deviants.

Along with that whole Qwikster thing Netflix ran past the public in September before yanking it back, the concept of renting video games by mail has also been nixed by the entertainment rental giant. CEO Reed Hastings says Netflix has no intentions of challenging GameFly in the game rental biz, knocking down the plan he announced just a few short months ago.
