Amidst all the concept art, the discussions and even the denials, rumors of a PSP phone live on. According to Mobile Entertainment, insiders have suggested that Sony Ericsson is indeed exploring the possibility of a gaming-centric mobile phone.Those clamoring for a PSP phone, however, will have to wait a bit longer, it seems. As Mobile Entertainment noted, Sony Ericsson's gaming phone - which is reportedly scheduled for a February 2008 launch - will not carry the PSP branding.
What it will have, though, is motion sensitivity for "Wii-like gameplay" on a handset - despite some recent mobile handsets already implementing tilt and vibration detection using their built-in cameras. Meanwhile, the new Sony Ericsson phone will also reportedly have a games-oriented UI and style as well as other technical innovations.
Will this new gaming phone end up as a potential PSP competitor? Sony Ericsson has already built a good reputation with its Cyber-shot and Walkman phones, while the PSP is expected to enjoy higher sales numbers this month when the PSP Slim hits.
What do you guys think about this possible competitor? Leave a comment below and share your thoughts.

others don't. You sound kind of like your about to
start flaming. In case you haven't noticed, a lot of
technology is merging, this concept being a good
one and doable. So I ask you, Why Not!

I should have a cell, but I dont, because I am poor. go ahead rub it in losers.
If I'm at work or on the road, i don't wanna talk anyway. And when I DO get a cell, it better be something like this.. games included.
