Sony Ericsson recently held a contest for Chinese university students to design a new phone. One creative student decided to take the opportunity to render his idea about the rumored Ericsson PlayStation phone. This render features a UMD slot and a DS-inspired flip-top. This render is also shown to be slightly smaller, but thicker, than the PSP itself. What do you guys think about it? If it didn't cost a gazillion dollars, would you pick one up?

I don't see the point of integrating a phone and gaming system. Look how well it worked for N-Gage.

If the PSP was my cellphone, I had at least an excuse to carry it around everywhere I go! My friends are already making jokes about the relationship between me and my PSP :-)

To daniel-kun.
Wtf are you talking about,as if you have any friends.No one bites that,comprende.
And i doubt you even carry a PSP(i doubt you even carry a wallet,i doubt you even have any money).
Nintendo moronic fanboys,gosh i know ds is teh suck and the gamecube is death but find something else to do.
Complain to Nintendo instead,why ds graphics suck?!,why ds games suck?! why we cant have a decent game from other developer than square enix or the Mario team?.
Now gtfo,gosh kids.

@ Granavatar_OfMe:
What the hell did he say that made him seem like an NDF member? Come on, I don't appreciate Ninty fanboys coming in here and bitching either, but you didn't even give that guy a chance.
@ daniel-kun:
I can never bring mine everywhere, I'm paranoid that I'm gonna drop it, or forget it's in my bag and toss my bag around.

Granavatar_OfMe,
Maybe you should learn English before you start dabbling in Spanish, comprende puto cabron? De hecho, porque no te vayas a chingarte, bendejo? Santa Madre!! You sound like a raving lunatic. Is everything you say a question, or are you just fond of the aesthetic of the question mark and explanation point side by side? But maybe you don't know about grammar yet, I could have sworn they taught that in sixth grade. Then again, maybe I overestimated you. You could easily be a fourth grader.
On topic, I think it's a way cool design. I have a pocket PC 6700 and it does everything a DS or PSP does except play games. It does high-speed internet, MP3s, Windows Mobile, etc. I really think that it's only a matter of time before a DS or PSP phone is developed and I'm sure that Sony will be on that way before Nintendo.

It looks DS-inspired because it has TWO SCREENS. Duh.

" This render features a UMD slot and a DS-inspired flip-top.. "
and how are you so sure that it was DS-inspired. it's almost as if your're implying that the DS was the 1st hand-held piece of machinery to hold two screens/ have a flip top. ehem.. this is a psp fanboy site, remember?
