PSP info i found.

[stars82]

I did a lot of research before E3 and i heard that PSP droped online multiplayer and other wireless features on the psp.

i don't know if this is right or not though

this is what i thought would be featured that might not get on the psp

online multiplayer gaming(don't know i fhtat would be wi-fi or not)

instant messenger(using the keyboard)

chat(same as above)

wireless multiplayer(actually i don't know if it even has bluetooth for short range wireless gaming)

organizer(i think it should have at least a phonebook, calender, to do list)


are these going to be on the final version, this months game informer had a feature on the psp but didn't talk about it's wireless functions or communication features like phone, messenger, chat, email, etc.

Look at the official information (specs) on this site and wait till the TGS when the final retail version will be on show to use.

[stars82]

when is TGS? and what exactly is it?

[NickSCFC]

Tokyo Game Show, September. Basically it's like the E3 but not as big. All the PSP Japanese launch games will be ready and playable and we'll get all the news.

Its the 12th - 15th of Sep i think and i cant wait to see the final product probably near enought the same as the prototype..

Ok. here is what I know on the online aspect of the psp.

I don't think that it is built in because of the fact that they are going to release a phone attachment for the psp. This is confermed and you can even find it on this site.

As for the other questions I have no idea but I dont this that they would drop wireless.

[ultimategamer2004]

Well that has nothing to do with it being online! And also it aint built but we know what it will look like.. and specs.. Plus a phone add on has been confirmed..

because of the fact that they are going to release a phone attachment for the psp. This is confermed and you can even find it on this site.

this isn't very right. the info on this site is very old and so is the news of the phone attachment.
it was rumored a long time ago that there would be a GPRS adapter or such thing but we have nothing heard of it till now, they would have shown it on E3 if it would be there (they even showed gps and camera prototype so whey they shouldn't have show this)

personally i think the PSP does't need such thing because it is a gaming/multimedia handheld and not a phone. look at the N-gage, it's totally crap and when i want to phone someone i use my cellphone.

For your information, the news on this site isn't old, and there will be a mobile phone attachment for the PSP. The reason why we didn't see anything of it at E3 is because it is to be released as an add-on at a later date.

[nobody]

where's the official statement ?

The reason why we didn't see anything of it at E3 is because it is to be released as an add-on at a later date.

the GPS, the keyboard will also be release at later dates and the camera was just a prototype so they would also have had a prototype of the mobile phone attachment i think.

but we will see at TGS (if such an attachment will come out we will hear it there)

[megachrisfiles15]

That's just it...You think!!!
you have now proof, no way to prove that they wont have this attachment and are just basing it on the fact that they didn't show this at E3. There are probably going to be alot more things that are going to be released for the PSP other than what we have talked about that was not shown at E3.[/quote]

[nobody]

you have now proof, no way to prove that they wont have this attachment

and you also don't have a proof that there will be such thing...
i also have no proof that there won't be a USB hairdryer for the PSP but that doesn't mean there will be a hairdryer just because nobody has a proof that it doesn't come out...

There are probably going to be alot more things that are going to be released for the PSP other than what we have talked about that was not shown at E3

thats fore sure because even logitech will make peripherals for the PSP.
but untill nobody has said any attachment for the PSP will come out i don't expect it to come out...

if sony officially (!) announces that there will be a phone attachment for the PSP then I believe there will be one because sony said so

[richjwild]

the psp is a prototype but thats guna come out isnt it?



that looks like a mobile phone addon to me

[DappaDizzle]

cant wait for tgs to see more psp stuff

[nobody]

that looks like a mobile phone addon to me

for me it looks like a keyboard with phone buttons on it.
where do you think all the technology is ? (because this is exactly the same as the normal keyboard)
and you would also need a headset so why isn't it on this psp when it would show the mobile phone addon ?

i heard rumors that the keyboard uses OLED technology so you could get different button layouts without having to replace something or buy another keyboard.
the symbols in the square on the left look like "musik" "movies" and all the symbols seen on the PSP UMD's.
and think of the IR of the PSP. with it you can connect a mobile phone to it, that could be the reason why you see nubers and phones on the keyboard.

cant wait for tgs to see more psp stuff

can't wait for TGS to see more P S P !!!

[ultimategamer2004]

No i dont think it is at all it is extremly unlikly and it is TGS not TGA..

[nobody]

the A is next to the S on my keyboard (maybe on yours too) which means i made a mistake as you could think..

[ultimategamer2004]

yeah sorry i forgot i make mistakes like that somtimes all keybords or at least standard ones are like that.

if sony officially (!) announces that there will be a phone attachment for the PSP then I believe there will be one because sony said so

Thank you Matt.

I was about to say that ken from sony computer entertainment inc. (scei) said that there would be a phone attachment for the psp but didn't have a source on the would to prove it (which you supplied). without it I would hve probably been bashed again by some people on this board (not naming any names).
