Well, this is certainly one rumor that just won't die -- nor is it likely to, not as long as the company has its hands in both manufacturing handsets and game consoles. According to an article in the Financial Times, Sony Ericsson president Hideki "Handsome Dick" Komiyama discusses his struggle to reposition the company as one the world's top three phone makers. Among bright ideas and desperate measures mulled over, the man in charge lets slip that no plan is too crazy or far-fetched to consider. Even a PlayStation-branded phone? "Could happen," he is quoted as saying. And there you have it! Begin warrantless speculation: now.

I would buy something like this in a heartbeat. I think the best iphone killer would actually be a 4.3 inch garmin gps with gsm radio in it. In my opinion, the psp goes one better if it retained its game playing capabilities and the screen size. I would get a phone (would need outlook support) could watch movies on planes and play games away from work. What else do you need?
i dont know, im a Playstation fan and all but other than online gaming anywhere i cant find a huge need for a 'PSP Phone'. i would probably buy a cell phone adapter for my PSP that attached to the USB port (there used to be something like this for Gameboy in Japan a couple years ago) but not sure if i would buy a PSP Phone though.
Works for me. I'd love it...esp if Sony then allowed for something other than their proprietary MemoryStick garbage. Put in a microSD, CompactFlash, and XD card slot, and allow for Nextel's PTT, and I'd be standing in line and be more than willing to put up a solid $500 or so.
it like the idea but i would never buy one, it would probably end up being thicker and I would like a thinner phone with priorities other than gaming.
