I bought the magazine from an authorised Sony dealer.

http://www.sonymagazine.co.uk

If you don't believe me, email Sony.

Plus they write about Angelina Jolie because the new bond film is made by Sony Pictures.

Since we're getting closer to that PSP Phone launch (or maybe not) wouldn't you like to know what all the concepts were for this device? Here's an idea of mine - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsuKbE5O2nk , as I gathered all the PSP Phone concepts I found. Did I miss any of them?

Sorry buddy, the URL can't be quite right. It didn't work. I hope mine is in there!

EDIT: Oh I see, just take the comma of the end

EDIT AGAIN: Yay, my concept! Love the video. Hehehe.

Today there's a new patent describing another way Sony Ericsson may go implementing PSP phone idea:



http://www.unwiredview.com/20[....]y-ericssons-own-iphone-patent/

The phone would have almost full front surface as a touchscreen and use orientation sensors and software to switch between PSP/Phone/Walkman/Cybershot modes.

Game controls will also come as on-screen softkeys, with tactile (haptics) feedback.

Pretty neat idea, and I don't see any reason why the likes of Xperia X1 or upcoming P5i can not gain PSP functionality, once the software is ready.

If you have ever played P800 to P910 games you'll know how bad a touch screen is for gaming. They would have to have proper buttons and if the games are fast paced, the screen would be ruined in no time. Just watch how people play on their PSP and PS3 machines and you'll get an idea of rough people can get.

I'm sure when/if PSP phone comes along, it won't be as good as standalone PSP console.

Almost no standalone device is. Converged device will always have some compromises, and won't be as good as a dedicated gadget.

Touchscreen technology and responsiveness of the touchscreens still has some ways to go too. But it's getting there, and should become very close to the real thing soon.

Then, if you add something like Hapticos technology, that Nokia has is working on: http://www.redferret.net/?p=9533 , it might become quite an attractive proposition

Hahahaha I hope it isn't just so everyone gets a good laugh! Hehe. Nah, really, if they bought that out, it would need to be a free giveaway phone for anyone to take it.
