I reeeeally hope he makes sure that the new playstation movie service coming this fall also is working on the Sony Ericsson phones.
It would be really stupid to se Sony Ericsson making one of their own at the same time.
Time to bring the two companies closer adn then we might even see a PSP that you can call with in the end...
