New Skype hands-on demonstration

By now our readers should be aware of the forthcoming Skype PSP feature, which will be available free for download in the near future.

To quickly recap, users will be able to call from PSP to PSP and PSP to Landlines/Cell Phones. There is a fee for making calls to cell phones and landlines, as you will need to access membership through Skype. Perhaps more interestingly, however, is that a demonstration on the PlayStation Blog has revealed that Sony is planning on releasing a Skype pack featuring the proper headset and connections.

Head over to the PlayStation Blog now to catch the latest video.

This is honestly making me consider getting a PSP. My piece of crap iPhone broke on me, so I'm going to need a new cell phone sometime soon.

This will probably be the best feature the psp has to offer now. Its a crying shame that i cant enjoy since i got the old version psp. Might just have to trade that old one in and get a new slim one i guess........ but probably not going not happen.

the bad thing bout this being used as a cell phone for Pap3rthin is youd need a constant wireless internet connection and it only costs for th landlines and cell phones but if your friends have skype you can talk on it for free

FreshBoy, you're a stupid prick and need to quit harassing people here. Someone please get him off of here.

Skype looks looks nice, but I really see no use unless my cell phone dies.
