damn, i am disappoint. Its sad when phones not marketed as gaming phones beat this in specs. This thing better be cheap, but im sure they will charge *smartphone* prices.

Wonder if old PSP games can be put on this via memory card. I can see their app just being a link to their online download store

Oh, it looks ugly as hell. And I dont get why they didn't just include real analog sticks - well very small ones that is. It's clear that those who will buy this phone are going to accept the extra heftiness it comes along with.
Also, being a gaming device its simply embarrasing they don't include a more powerful hardware.
Somehow I feel Sony likes to shoot itself in the foot.

Okay... actual pictures this time!

The Earlier "prototype" or "secret' photos, they photo-shopped or placed a obvious Samsung Galaxy-S phone on top of a PSP.

I'm very disappointed with the specs of this thing. Personally I thought it would come equipped with a Tegra 2 SoC, 1GHz, Dual-Core Cortex A9, 1GB of RAM, and a GeForce GPU...much more powerful than that Adreno GPU...much more suited for a gaming device.

The PSPhone doesn't need any advertising.. all these 'leaks' are doing the job. Well played.
I just need to hope my current phone keeps going until this is released..

[citation][nom]dillyflump[/nom]Ummmm it's just a PSP GO with phone function.[/citation]
Minus PSP games, yeah it is kind of like that. But really its just YAS (Yet Another Smartphone). I mean, a single-core Snapdragon and an Adeno? Really? There are much faster graphics chips on the market from PowerVR and Nvidia.

[citation][nom]soundefx[/nom]Is this a psp with phone capabilities or a phone with gaming capabilities?[/citation]

This is just a phone with a d-pad and buttons to play games with instead of just using the touch screen. Don't know why people keep thinking it's a full blown handheld gaming machine with phone capability.

[citation][nom]applegetsmelaid[/nom]If it doesn't play games from Playstation Network, this phone is silly.[/citation]

Yes. It would make most sense for it to just connect to PSN and you can purchase downloadable games online. If the entire downloadable PSP library isn't available on this - that would be quite poor.

[citation][nom]bobusboy[/nom]I will promise to post less abuse posts.[/citation]

mods -_-; Still stands that the spam is unreasonable on this site.

It would be funny that the first post after mine is spam..considering the content of my now edited post but it really isn't.
