that and then some. Seriously? a pshone "killing" the iphone? You kidding? Sony couldn't do Nintendo on its own ground, why would it do Apple?

this reminds me of a quote in my sig 
As an iphone owner, I can safely say that I *want* some Android phone in the coming years. After dealing with Apples preposterous limitations as to what I may or may not do with my own phone, I'm ready to switch. Anytime. Unfortunately I'm bound up with a 2 year contract. Yeah, the hardware is high quality and the OS is slick, but if it doesn't allow me to do the simplest jobs that I can have in virtually *any* other cellphone, screw you Apple, keep your iTunes, I'm *so* going to buy that PSPhone if it's Android enabled, and I'm going to put my SIM card in that.

You could buy the console in almost every electronics store with its default functionality (Movie store/NetFlix , MP3 capabilities and gaming capabilities) as well as downloadable apps. Then if the consumer wants they can take it to the service provider Sony works with and add cell phone capabilities to the system. So you wouldn't be forced to sign a cell phone contract to operate the system, it would be an advanced PSP with cell phone capabilities optional. Think touch screen ,graphics between X-Box and 360 with cell phone capabilities and probubly some internal memory for apps and such. Think about it some consumers could sign a contract for the PSPhone and get one free with a 3-year contract, or they could go into their local store and pick it up for 250$. The device would be sold all over and with an Android App store it would offer many features the 3DS doesn't and features an I-Phone couldn't. |
Just to put this idea into perspective.
In the US, the iPhone 4 (16GB) costs $200 with a 2/year contract. The iPhone 4 goes for over $500 on e-bay without a contract. If we look at droid phones (just looking at what is offered by Verizon's online website) all of the android phones have a retail (no contract) price over $350 with most closer to $500.
There is no way a PSPhone gets sold for $250 with those specs and without a 2-year contract. Well, I guess it could, but it would be the new PS3 in terms of profitability.
no.
Sony has no where near the reputation and presence that Apple does in the portable space. For absolute starters, Sony would need an app store that is even sort of comparable... which they don't have.

No, but it could probably kill Sony
For reasons statd above, it wouldn't work, but it's a moot point since they won't try anyway. You seen any PSP ads lately? All they do is bash cell phone games. They'd be hypocrites if they then combined their gaming device with a cell phone.
lol, I hate the Iphone as much as the next guy but if google cant do it sony has no chance in hell. Im still waiting for windows phone 7.
