PSP Fanboy announced that the most recent 3.90 firmware for the PSP has finally added the rumored Skype support. This update and addition of Skype is only available for the PSP Slim (PSP-2000 series) and not the original launch PSP.
They also make the note that the PSP Headset with controls is required as well. Not sure if others are supported at this point.
why dont they a firmware for the old psp….isnt that unfair///lolz
Arjay,
I believe you can apply the firmware upgrade to all PSPs, it just won’t enable Skype support on the original launch models.
My guess as to why, is for marketing reasons. But some folks have said the extra memory and CPU power on the slim are the difference… I doubt it though, it’s probably just a sales reason to push the new model.
