Author: Once every few months, rumormongers turn the spotlight onto their favorite rumorware. The long-rumored PSP phone is one such device that makes a comeback every now and then. Now, its the turn of the venerable Wall Street Journal to report about a “smart phone capable of downloading and playing PlayStation games.”
According to its sources, Sony is developing a host of portable media devices and the PlayStation-compatible phone is one of them. The report comes days after Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) SVP of publisher relations, Rob Dyer, told Industry Gamers that the PSP Go has turned out to be confusing and expensive.
Another device mentioned in the same report is a “multifunction” media device to rival the Apple iPad. Apparently, the device will cut across different segments and serve as an e-reader, MID and handheld gaming platform all at once. Both the rumored devices are said to be compatible with Sony’s version of Apple’s iTunes.
