This offers a full Skype experience, including SkypeIN and SkypeOUT. It is currently only available via the Network Update facility direct on the device, but a PC download option should appear soon.

Sony have confirmed that Skype will be coming to the PSP-Slim via a firmware update later this month, but that it will not be available on the original PSP.

The Skype functionality includes SkypeIN and SkypeOUT though, which the 3 Skypephone doesn’t have.

Crundy, a user on the 3 SkypePhone forums, has created a PC application to get around the lack of SkypeIN / SkypeOUT on the 3 SkypePhone itself.
