These days, many tech companies have been trying to create gadgets which merges multiple devices into one. For instance, the iPhone is Apples device which confines a multi-media player, phone and game device all into one. There has been speculation that Sony was planning to add cellphone capabilities to their PSP gaming console…and it looks like it may become a reality.
Recently, Sony has stated that it’s “considering developing a cellphone-game gear hybrid” on Sony Ericsson phones. I definitely think it’s a great idea, but i think Sony has been late to the game and now Apple dominates the market with their iPhone. If Sony can make the next incarnation of PSP to include cellular capabilities, I believe many gamers will buy it. If I had a choice of carrying two devices (PSP and cellphone) or a PSP-phone, I would choose the latter….it’s all about portability! Though news like this is promising, I won’t be excited until an actual product is announced.
