Anonymous sources have told Pocket-lint that Sony will be allowing rival smartphone maker HTC to have PlayStation Certification (http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/23/psp-games-playstation-certified-devices-ESRB/) for its devices. An official announcement is expected at MWC at the end of the month, with devices able to play PSOne games and access to the Android-flavor of the Sony Entertainment Network (http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/05/playstation-network-becomes-sony-entertainment-network-feb-7th/). Former SCE Chairman (now company president) Kaz Hirai (http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/06/sonys-kaz-hirai-to-step-up-as-president-as-early-as-april/)introduced the program open to non-Sony devices at AsiaD last year (http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/20/kaz-hirai-sony-is-in-discussions-with-non-sony-companies-over/), possibly to the raised eyebrows of those in the company's revamped mobile division (http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/05/sony-ericsson-to-become-sony-in-mid-2012/).
