PSP Skype is Delayed in Japan. Doesn’t Affect You At All.
Looks like those Wii crazy Japanese will have to wait a little longer to go Skype crazy on their PSPs. Kotaku gives us word that the Skype feature previously announced for the PSP will be delayed until a later, unannounced, date in Japan. The reason for this is that some of the Microphone components in Sony’s PSP mics weren’t up to snuff for Skype and instead of releasing the feature without proper peripheral support they’re going to delay it until they can release a mic that meets the standards.
Doesn’t really matter to us Americans and Europeans as Sony says that the Japanese delay really won’t affect the release date for us. File this away as a useless tidbit other than to laugh at your Japanese friends as you update your PSP with Skype any day now.

Am I the only one who doesn’t want to look like an asshole by talking into my PSP like a phone? I think this feature is just altogether stupid.
Its even stranger when you have the iPhone and its integrated microphone headphones, its like you’re talking to yourself while listening to an iPod, or singing some strange lyrics.
