One of our readers informed us of a new service from Sony called eyeVio, which will launch tomorrow in Japan. This informative diagram from the site shows a world where cameras, camcorders, phones and other devices can communicate with each other. Next to the defunct boomerang PS3 controller, one may see a PSP. Could YouTube-styled streaming video come to the PSP? Not quite.

Just like Sony's other video streaming service, Grouper, eyeVio will allow users to download PSP (and iPod) compatible video files. More interesting, however, seems to be the mobile version of eyeVio (m.eyevio.com), which will allow users to also upload files from their mobile devices.

The service will be limited to the Japanese market.

It's not going to be big or anything. Youtube will never be stopped. It's just like Sony's iTunes competitor, it failed.

EyeVio. Sounds like it should be an apple related product, five bucks says they did that on purpose. ;)
