Your PSP doesn’t have enough memory for Skype. Yeah, right.

Since the recent announcement that Skype PSP will not work on Phat PSP’s we were annoyed but managed. Now we’re insulted, annoyed and angry. We could (partially) understand that Sony wants to boost PSP Slim sales. We could (partially understand that the way to do is is by exclusive features. But to claim that Skype PSP will not work on Phat PSP’s just because of lack of memory, we can’t understand.  Nick Sharples from SCEE tried to explain, but it seems that we aren’t sharpest tools in the shed.

Although PSP-1000 and PSP-2000 are identical in basic functions, there are differences in hardware specifications to some extent and for that reason, PSP-2000 may differ in features from PSP-1000. We had studied the possibility of supporting Skype with PSP-1000 but had to give it up because of the smaller size of main memory on PSP-1000 series.
