Report: Sony To Announce PSP Skype Functionality

Long rumored as an eventual update to its handheld, the official site for Sony's presence at the forthcoming CES show has revealed that VOIP provider Skype will be bringing integrated voice chat to the PSP in North America.

The PSP's role in portable communication has long been promised -- its first E3 showing included numeric keypad peripherals for phone dialing -- but despite an announcement in May and further details in August of a partnership with British Telecom and Go!Messenger kit for European users, nothing has yet been announced for North American owners.

The Go!Messenger kit will allow instant message functionality, and, by adding a headset, voice chat and voice messaging. Using Go!Cam, the PSP's attachable video camera, users will also have the ability to make video calls to their friends and leave video and voice messages.

It's not yet known how much of this functionality is being prepared for North America, but Sony's CES 2008 site contains references to a new application that will let PSP users "call friends, talk trash to fellow gamers, or catch up with acquaintances via Skype for PSP system."

This year's CES will be held next week starting January 6th, so more official details and announcements should be expected in the coming days.

索尼在其CES 2008官方网站中确认长久为外界所谣传的VOIP功能将正式在PSP中得到支持。即将推出的 Go!Messenger 移动通讯软件包将增加一个耳麦，支持语音聊天和语音短信。再配备 Go!Cam 摄像头还能支持视频呼叫。

进一步的具体消息有待索尼在即将到来的CES 2008公布。

期待一个，拿着PSP躺在床上激情视频应该挺爽的。
