BT to make PSP a Phone

Filed in archive Mobile Technologies by tom on May 23, 2007

BT has announced it will be releasing software for the Sony PSP that makes use of the soon to be released camera and microphone which will effectively transform the PSP into a wireless telephone with video call support.
According to BT, the software will eventually be distributed to telecoms companies in 100 other countries.

The service is part of a growing trend to enable so called voice over internet protocol (VoIP) on mobile devices.

[...]

The new PSP service takes advantage of BT's 21 Century Network (21CN), which is specifically designed to use Internet Protocol (IP) technology.

Eventually, 21CN will replace all the existing networks.

More details of the BT service will be released at the Leipziglinks Games Convention in August, whilst Sony's add-on camera and microphone for the PSP, known as the Go camera, will hit shelves in the UK on 25 May.
