PlayStation Phone: This Could Be a Thing

PlayStation Phone speculation intensified Wednesday as blog Engadget showed off what appears to be an actual Sony Ericsson phone with PlayStation buttons.

Sony declined to comment on the rumor (same as last time this rumor surfaced), but Engadget reports that it's heading to market "soon" -- like 2011 soon. The prototype unit shown in the blog's photos has a long multitouch enabled touchpad in the center, support for microSD cards, 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, and the screen is 3.7 to 4.1 inches.

Given Sony's push for a fully integrated PlayStation Network across all its devices, a PlayStation Phone doesn't seem outlandish. Getting it to market right after the Windows Phone 7, however, seems risky.

wow sony making a psp phone just used sykpe on hack psp 3000 free phone calls ^^

^^ True at the skype on the PSP is probably more affordable method of making calls, but the only problem is that you wont have a network connection, only if you have WiFi you can make calls with skype.

They should just have a mod piece for the PSP Go to use as a phone, this will give the PSP some more sales, instead of coming out with a whole new product that might fail

indeed sony just gasping at straw with psp go now

lol when i got my psp go i thought it was like a phone. Kinda looks like one but honestly i prefer a new iphone then a psp go like phone.
