PlayStation-Based Mobile Handset a Possibility

Posted by Soulskill on Saturday May 9, 2009 @06:41PM from the since-the-psp-is-way-too-big dept.

Speaking with Financial Times, Hideki Komiyama, president of Sony Ericsson, raised the possibility of a mobile handset based on PlayStation gaming. The company has been struggling to find an answer to current smartphones, and they plan to release three new models within the next year which run Symbian, Android, and Windows Mobile. Komiyama likened a PlayStation-related handset to the music-based Walkman handset and the camera-based Cybershot handset. Quoting the FT: "He expresses interest in Sony Ericsson carving out a niche for itself based on Sony's strength in gaming. He says a PlayStation mobile, building on the Walkman and Cybershot phones, 'could happen.'"

You are an ass.

But then I'd assume you like wasting your money on short-lived games with very little staying power with the way you phrase your comment.
"Assume" is the correct word here, considering you are an ass. The GP meant that there aren't games geared toward a short play time. I don't know if that's true at all, but at least I know what he meant.

"Hey, I don't pay a premium for this like you do with your iPhone. I pay $30/yr and that's that to make phone calls. You pay that monthly? Fool."
I'd love to see you do that 40 miles out in the middle of nowhere like an iPhone user can. Oh right, you are too stupid to understand the difference between cellular and wifi access.
