At the CES 2008, Sony has announced Skype for PSP, making PSP a truly multifunctional portable game console. You can play games, watch videos, listen to music, surf internet and now, talk! However, Skype is ONLY for PSP-2000 model, which is the new PSP Slim. Argh!
According to various sources, such as Gamespot and QJ.net, Skype will be coming to PSP in late January.
It is a disappointing fact that Sony has advanced to developing new features that are exclusive to the new PSP Slim only. The original PSP, PSP Phat, is unable to support Skype. I guess this is one of the marketing strategy to make PSP Phat owners to buy the new PSP Slim.
QJ.net has also posted the new Skype PSP screenshot and the new Sony USB microphone device for PSP.
As we can see, Skype is coming to PSP (Slim) only. If Skype runs on PSP Phat also, that will be heavenly.
