Skype is to come in the next firmware update for sure, sometime this month. Divx playback isn't an option because the PSP only plays PSP specific MP4 files which are different from the Ipod MP4 files. I don't know what else will come out in the update but I'd love to see PS2 games be available for Remote Play.

I thought PS2 remote play would be a feature for the PSP2... are PS2 games even playable? I thought it would be a feature for the PSP2... and the PSP3 would play PS3 games and so on :?

So like basically Playstation Portables are like the Portable versions of the respective console except its like .5? So I'm guessing PSP = PS1.5, PSP2 = PS2.5...

I agree The browser just doesn't cut they need to find a better way to do that

I'm pretty sure that 4.0 will be skype though, and 5.0 will probably be around the time that the GPS programs start.

oh and one more thing, how many people will honestly use skype? hardly any, they should have at least gotten a keyboard out to better communicate with computers first, I think skype is goign to be one of those things thats a cool idea, but just serves little use.

Sony is currently making a keyoard, we probably won't see it for another year. Honestly i think the psp is a great device and all the apps and firmware upgrades cant hurt it just thinking that sony could of made it into a truly simple multi media device. Oh well i just use it for games and the casual mp3/4 and net

exactly, all skype is, is a way to try to add more features that probably don't function very well, they need to fix all the frustrations people have with what's all ready available

There was a company that had planned a psp keyboard that doubled as a screen protector, but sony stopped them from selling it, now at the CES convention, they announced that an official Sony keyboard will be available sometime in 2009. :x

Skype is only going to work with the PSP Slim though because the original PSP doesnt have enough RAM.

maaan negative thoughts huh this is a SONY psp... there will always be something else an simple update can add.. there is an update coming that will allow the psp to be used as a GPS, there is just soo much things that can be done, like controlling other devices other than using illegal mods create your own music.. there is just soo much more that can be done with the psp its almostunimaginable

i want to clarify some things people said

First of all ,Skype, is coming to the psp slim only. Secondly the camera for the psp has been announced for North America for this year and it works for both psp slim and phat. Last but not least a gps navigator has also been scheduled to come out this year for North America but it is not clear if it is for only the psp slim or both. And also they have announced the idea of creating a keyboard which may or may not come out in 2009.

When I found out Skype was coming to my PSP which I bought last month, I was very very pleased. I use Skype everyday, for my regular calls overseas as well as for all my local calls. I pay 3 bucks a month and that gives me so much more than the regular telephone service provider who chargest 30 a month. With Skype on my PSP, no matter where I go, so long as I have a wifi connection nearby, I'm set to make and receive calls, messages on the go. Of course, it relies on there being an active wireless connection that doesn't charge me to use it, but most universities have wireless access points that are free for their students, and seeing as I'll be spending most of my time at my Uni doing a masters this coming fall, I'll be all set for calls, internet browsing, and the occassional onlines Wipeout session. To Sony: more apps like skype? Bring'em on.

Does anyone else think that it's so incredibly lame that the PSP is sold as a portable music player, movie player, and game machine while not even coming with earbuds or the psp slim remote? I know it's just a way for Sony to make some extra cash on the side, but I have problems with manufacturors selling me an incomplete product. Who wants to listen to music, or watch movies on those small little speakers (which are outshined by the DS's, might I add). Anyways, don't take away points from me for posting half a sentence about the DS in a PSP thread, that would be real fascist-like.

that's a software thing. a new firmware won't do that, a game has to incorporate that into it's own settings. sorry.

I agree it is quite lame to not include earbuds while promoting it as a gaming system as well as a media player. as i recall, the original "Value Pack" did come with earbuds.
