Will Sony Ericsoon introduce its PSP phone? According to Fraser MacInnes of PocketGamer, most probably the rumour will turn to be real.

We have been speculating about the possibility of a PSP phone for a while now, mostly because we desperately want one. But given the announcement of Sony’s new deal with BT to turn the original hardware into a telecommunications device, our hopes of ever seeing some sort of PSP branded Sony Ericsson had all but faded. A recently-unearthed patent however seems to indicate that Sony-Ericsson has at the very least been thinking about releasing a more gaming centric phone. It’s unlikely that this device is directly compatible with PSP software, as even though it has clearly been designed with a focus on making mobile games easier to control, it certainly doesn’t have the sort of set-up that would accommodate PSP games. Having said that, the rotating screen does bear a remarkable resemblance to the PSP’s, and if the device ever does see the light of day it is conceivable that it will be branded with the PSP logo.
