Earlier, we heard about Sony supposedly revealing Skype for the PSP come CES 2008. This bit of news came in from the official Sony CES website, but other than that, there doesn't seem to be any other word on the matter.

Now, Sony's actually responded to all the hubbub going around downtown Internet, with an all-too-familiar comment that neither confirms nor denies all the speculation of what this PSP Skype feature will entail. Speaking to SPOnG, Sony's commented the following:

As we've mentioned in the past, we are constantly evaluating new technology and features to add to PSP and further details will be announced shortly.

Though they didn't reveal much about the feature itself, the simple fact that there are details to be revealed seems to be pounding the last nail on the coffin. Could this be a mere hint or an actual confirmation?

Here's one sure thing though: CES 2008 is primed to get one big announcement from Sony. And you can bet your last Skype dollar credit that we'll let you guys hear of anything once the bomb - any bomb - drops.

# DAX WILL? — Mentality 2008-01-05 08:53

As and when this firmware comes I should imagine this will be one that DAX will get his hands on, lets hope he doesn't dash these dreams with another comment about leaving the scene soon after 3.80 is completed.
