PSP-Phone by Sony, not SE

| 6 Comments
PSP-phone will be by Sony, not Sony Ericsson  It looks like the concept of a PSP-phone isn’t too far fetched after all based on the report by Marketing Week. However, the possibility that it might be under the Sony Ericsson brand is looking a bit grim as Sony is looking to launch such a device under its own brand as opposed to the former. So it looks like the hype of the SE F305 being the pioneering model of the PSP-phone line has now come to an abrupt end.   From a technical stand point, it makes sense to just incorporate phone functionality into the PSP since most of the gaming hardware and software isn’t readily available on Sony Ericsson phones. As a matter of fact, calling via VoIP thanks to Skype and Wi-Fi is already possible on the PSP slim so they’ll just have to do some more tweaking to integrate mobile phone functionality. N-gage mobile-gaming phone. Image courtesy of Mobile Review From a design stand point, I’m a bit scared of what it might turn out as flashbacks of the first N-gage device from Nokia suddenly hit me. It probably succeeded as a gaming device, but failed miserably as a phone. Hopefully, Sony won't make the same mistake. Anyway, it’s still a mighty long time before Christmas 2009 which is the speculated availability date of the PSP gaming-mobile phone so don't get too excited just yet.
