PSP phone for Christmas 2009?

Wednesday 25-Jun-2008 4:37 PM Those rumours just won't go away...
2 Comments
Sony is currently working on a PSP-branded phone for the Christmas season of 2009, Japanese and Korean sources are claiming again.

The company is using the PSP as its model for the phone and intends to incorporate many of its key features into the new device.

Analysts speaking to Marketing Week also claimed that it would be "relatively easy" to convert as it already incorporates wi-fi.

The move would put Sony's relationship with Ericsson into jeopardy, but insiders are reporting that the relationship is already "frosty" at best. Probably because Ericsson bosses keep reading all these reports online about Sony making a PlayStation phone.

According to (yet another) insider, internal conversations have already confirmed that Sony would "never give its PlayStation branding" to the Sony Ericsson joint venture.

It's hardly confirmation, but it sounds more than just a rumour. Enough for us to consider not joining the iPhone cult, anyway.

I barely use my phone, but i wouldn't want to carry my PSP about just to phone people, it's huge compared to phones you can get for the same price as a PSP Very Happy
it's as though Sony think the PSP is made to play outside or something. Shocked
