Sony Ericsson refused PlayStation-brand phone idea

Filed under: Peripherals

The PSP Phone is an urban legend. It never existed, but it's way too good to let go of. So, that brings us back to this story wherein Sony Ericsson allegedly was refused the use of the PlayStation brand name for phones despite the idea being pitched this past December. This is according to MobileToday which has cited "several sources close to the matter."

According to the source article, Sony only plans to license a PlayStation phone if the company plans to make handsets independently from Ericsson. So when's that going to happen and what do we have to do to make it happen?
