Skype coming to the PSP - Proof
Posted on: January 02, 2008

[CES 2008] The CES 2008 website from Sony shows that the PSP will feature Skype support – something that is definitely not out today. The PSP video also gives the information away, although it shows up only for 1 frame! It’s an interesting Easter egg and apparently, we are the first to have caught it :)

you do not have to download skype if you have a slim psp,you just have to go under network and skype is the third application down

Once you buy something and open it, you cant return it unless it breaks.

Skype only works with the PSP 2000 series (Slim) because the software and hardware is updated and improved vs the PSP 1000 series (Fat). And because 1000 series and 2000 series accessories don't work with one another... there is no possiable way to get something on the slim on the fat. In simple words... Skype cannot, in any way, be put on the first PSP! I know it sucks, but if you have the 1000 series PSP (Fat) and want Skype you will have to buy the new PSP 2000 series (Slim). I have the slim so i don't have to worry.

to download skype you need to have the psp 2000 (slim). a lot of people have the psp 1800 (fat). so you might have get the psp slim. thats what im going to do.

You have to upgrade to 3.90
By KFM , 10/03/08 6:33 AM (CommentID #545667)
XD, Sony didn't try their hardest to get it on the fat PSP, they _intentionally_ did that so people would have to buy a PSP Slim if they wanted to use it portably.
Skype is actually quite cheap considering you can call landlines in America for free, and their international rates are really good.
By Justin Heiter , 09/03/08 6:29 AM (CommentID #543686)
hey, i just got this new skype thing on my psp and its pretty cool but, i am not really sure how it works i see that it gave me 1 free call but, can i do more? i know that i can get free calls to and from other PSP users but, i cant send phone calls to people on home lines is it really expensive or what? i would like to try it out but it seems like some thing that costs alot. so can you help me out?
By Milan , 08/03/08 3:28 PM (CommentID #543246)
how do you get skype on to the fat psp do you have to download or can you download skype on to the fat psp please tell me
By Bowe Yang , 05/03/08 9:50 PM (CommentID #536579)
This may be a stupid question but can you receive calls from landlines and cellphones or is it just one way?
By SAgar , 04/03/08 8:21 PM (CommentID #533279)
skype is a sofware that can make free calls to all of friends for free using ur intrnet connection.
By Mat , 03/03/08 1:33 PM (CommentID #529127)

Skype For PSP Slim will show up after the update to the most recent firmware (PSP slim only)

Where can you get psp skype for slim psp's

It sucks because you have to buy a service to call regular phones. Also, you have to get a special kind of microphone.
By anonymous , 02/02/08 3:43 PM (CommentID #460570)

By Jpeg91 , 10/01/08 2:26 PM (CommentID #424978)
yeh this doesn't work on the old fat PSP1000's because of lack of RAM. Sony have stated that they tried there hardest to get it to work on the older ones but the lack of RAM was just too much of an issue to work around. And iv herd that it will work with the SOCOM headset.
By light wolf , 08/01/08 5:03 AM (CommentID #421753)
if i get skype for psp i will be crazy coz i want a cellphone !! :P
By bob , 07/01/08 12:53 PM (CommentID #420990)

By Wintermute , 02/01/08 6:51 PM (CommentID #415548)
Sweet. Hope this will work with the existing PSP Microphone peripheral so I won't have to buy new gear.
