"Gaming phones are an abomination to common sense."

All in one devices, I think, are the future. A phone doesn't necessarily need keypads. They could be virtual keypads or touchscreen. I want a gaming unit first, then a phone. So I wouldn't want keypads, just something like the psp as it is since I infrequently use a cell phone.

And you wouldn't necessarily have to hold it up to your face to talk, it could probably use pull-out earbuds that wound out or something. The future holds many possibilities.

I'm still certain that the PSP phone will suck , All in one devices won't ever be the future and i'll explain why.

When ever you make an all in one device you have to make compromised and you also have to prioritise doing many things good rather than one thing excellently.

For example I couldn't find myself playing on a screen that was lot smaller than my PSP's as a hardcore gamer I want the best possible visual experience on the road/at home.

As a mobile phone user I couldn't possibly find myself typing using the dpad buttons , the need for a keyboard in increasing , with phone capabilities constalty being improved Internet,messenger etc.

Also you find that lightness and size is a huge factor in mobile phone apeal , something the PSP phone won't have without sacrificing some gaming/other capabilities.

Companies have always faced this dilema , " if we make a gaming phone good at playing games then it'll suck at being a mobile phone , if it's a good mobile phone then it'll suck at playing games".

If you want gaming get a PSP or DS , if you want phones get a Nokia or Sony Erricson ffs.
