- chingy1788, on 01/03/2008, -1/+22skype is free, you're just too cheap
- etaylor, on 01/03/2008, -0/+19Would be cool if they could integrate a tiny webcam into the PSP as well for handheld, portable video chat.
- DarkStalker, on 01/03/2008, -3/+19This was known for almost a year when references to a skype plugin was discovered in the PSP firmware back in February. Dark Alex FTW!
- DarkStalker, on 01/03/2008, -0/+13There already IS a webcam. It's called the Chotto Shot in Japan or the Go! Cam in Europe. Not yet released in the US.
- fkr3, on 01/03/2008, -0/+13Skype is very close to free... I pay like 20c a minute to phone cell phones in Australia from wherever in the world I am... my friends spend more phoning each other from within Australia, and I pay pennies for phoning land lines.
This was also on the frontpage yesterda as well.
http://digg.com/playstation/Skype_officially_commi ... - bharless3329, on 01/03/2008, -1/+13This is huge. We'll be able to use our PSPs to make calls if we're in a wifi hot-spot, and they're free if you call another skype user! My whole family uses skype to communicate, so this is very cool to me.
- heloo, on 01/03/2008, -0/+11Sony is overdelivering in my opinion and that is a good thing. My ds has the same features as the day I bought it and that is not a good thing. My next system is ps3.
- DickyT83, on 01/03/2008, -2/+12Hooray, not only are we going to have to deal with the notorious blue tooth ear piece guy, but now this guy.
- tekrat, on 01/03/2008, -0/+8Put your money where your mouth is. Show us the article where Sony supposedly announced they would have Skype years ago.
- Nobi-Wan, on 01/03/2008, -0/+7There's a headset/mic for the PSP you can buy already. It's only $20. I was debating getting one for a while for multiplayer, but now I have a REAL reason to get one.
- blankoboy, on 01/03/2008, -0/+7This is a boon for SONY and Skype....they need to bring this to the PS3 next with support for the eyetoy cam!
- purelithium, on 01/03/2008, -1/+7Hey, I dugg an engadget story about this yesterday, now I can't find it... weird... That's been happening a lot, digging stories and then them disappearing... like the Gestapo has found them or something.
- santasing, on 01/03/2008, -0/+6Forgive him people coz he's a blind fanboy. R&C, Jeanna D' Arc, Syphon Filter, MGS, Killzone, Patapon, the list is actually pretty long.
- Typhoon2009, on 01/03/2008, -0/+4If anything there'd be an iPhone emulator for the PSP. Don't ask me how you'd get around the whole touch-screen business though.
- inactive, on 01/03/2008, -0/+4Sweet, the PSPs power is just starting to be unlocked... after they allowed 333mhz and the new God of War footage looks amazing. Also the radio in the new firmware update is freaking sweat, so many good channels with sweet music. In one night i heard 5 iron maiden songs, a YES song, a Motorhead song, a Black Label Society song, stuff that isnt usually played on the normal radio.
- hordak, on 01/03/2008, -1/+1This is already a feature of the Nokia N800 and N810 tablets. So, it makes sense to bring Skype to another portable device.
- crushfan, on 01/03/2008, -2/+1Come on..
- inactive, on 01/03/2008, -2/+1@etaylor They already have a camera add on for the PSP they never brought to North America - couldn't this be used in webcam purposes ? Than again Skpe would be pointless as the PSP connectivity issues are very abroad and depends upon area and services in that area - as the internet services have failed thus far -where as Apple has capitalized on with the said Iphone
I mean when i can't play youtube videos on the dame PSP how can i trust i can use Skype without issues !! - oomwrtu, on 01/03/2008, -6/+3I love reading front page stories that say the same exact thing as the last 5 I read on the same exact topic.
- inactive, on 01/03/2008, -4/+1Don't buy anything from Sony ever.
- EtXP, on 01/03/2008, -6/+2Sony is finally catching up to the modding community.. first that announce PS1 games playable (within range of your PS3) and now skype .. they should give DA a job there perhaps they will be a less than a year behind the rest of us..
- CresseyChaos, on 01/03/2008, -4/+0You'd have to look silly chatting into a full on headset with a PSP in your pocket, this would be the way to go...

uses the same sliding mechanism as the Nokia N95
Phone with PSP not PSP with phone :P - navster15, on 01/03/2008, -6/+1All they need to do now is add a speaker and receiver on the side of the PSP.
SIDETALKIN' LIVES! [http://sidetalking.com/] - chingy1788, on 01/03/2008, -8/+3but you don't like it enough
dugg! - nationdigg, on 01/03/2008, -7/+1...The PSP has no mic? WTF????????
- geuis2, on 01/03/2008, -7/+1Isnt there a PSP emulator for the iPhone???
- bigbchew, on 01/03/2008, -10/+1If only this happened 3 years ago when the PSP had ANY chance of being successful.
- daridave, on 01/03/2008, -12/+1FINALLY!!! A good game for PSP !!! Oh, wait...
- Sabin, on 01/03/2008, -21/+7BURY ME CUZ I LIKE IT!
- thenativeraver, on 01/03/2008, -28/+1Skype is not free.
Sony announced this years ago, so not only is this inaccurate, It's also old news.
