Hands-On With Skype PSP

[wraggster]

Today's Playstation Portable firmware update came with a little touch of Skype (except if you live in China, go figure). Once patched, the Skype option shows up under Network. I was able to pretty quickly register for a new account using the PSP and get it working in less then five minutes.

It's a pretty cool build of the software and while I'm not sure how often I'd use it around the house, I definitely plan on bringing it with me when I travel for some free calls. Also plan on abusing the hell out of it to harass Ash since it only cost me $10 to buy seven hours worth of worldwide Skype to phone service. (Skype to Skype is free) That's right seven hours of me rambling to Ash... can't wait!

Well...I don't have a slim PSP but that seems pretty good. But after awhile, don't you think Skype to Phone would get expensive

as for skype being expensive if you are only phoning other people on skype is cheap and if if you are phoning land lines its probly cheaper than a none contract mobile pone well atleast in the uk anyway.

Well I read that there is a plan that is only $3.00 a month to call land lines and cell phones. I believe its only in the U.S. and Canada but $3.00? That's a good deal. I can't wait to try it.
