anyone knows whats infrared for?

Some people have already done interesting things with it.

I think it was mainly put there because it's easier to have present and think up a use later than to not have it and desire one later. Think of how consoles (pronounced 'nintendo') have all kinds of added ports that don't get used until years after the console is released.

IR is not necessary in any official PSP games that I'm aware of to play multiplayer.

I know this because I've played Burnout and Twisted Metal using the Wi-Fi, not IR. This isnt the GBC you know ;)

DraconumPB is right, IR has no official use, i dont know why sony included it, it can probably be used as a remote for the ps3

Just wait - sony will have loads of juicy things planned uses for the IR port.
