Things get sleeker and smaller when technology gets better.

Sony has provided us with PS4 accessory screenshots . We see the headset, charging station and stand.

The charging station will be able to hold two Dual Shock 4 controllers, and the console stand supports the system if you wish to stand it up vertically. As if it's any surprise, both peripherals are black, just like the system. As for the mono headset, it consists only of a single earbud, volume control and a clip to attach to your clothes. Of course, everything you see is essentially a prototype and subject to change.

The new controllers will retail for $60, as will the PlayStation Eye. We don't know how much the headset will cost just yet. There's still plenty to learn between now and the system's launch later this year.
