The peripheral was originally available with the talkman translation software.]]>Jan 7th 2008 11:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/
This looks like it explains that the Skype App utilizes this Mic or the same interface. That means that it's likely there will be a new Mic released soon :D

Allthough, the fact that they have images is a bit disturbing, especially since the date is 8/10 (i'm going to assume 2007 ;)) it could be a chop, or homebrew.

It is time SONY branches out (even more) with PSP.

They need to offer a GPS add-on (SONY BRAND LABELED) with a windshield mount. They also need point - to point software as good as TOM TOM's with a preloaded Memory Stick with map data.

They need to make a video/chat client to take full use of the SKYPE or VOIP protocals.

You can also use the microphone built-into the Go!Cam, or the PSP Headset, its all just as good (and yes, you can use the headset for mic and cam for video simultaneously).]]>Jan 7th 2008 12:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/Jan 7th 2008 1:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/Jan 7th 2008 1:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/Jan 7th 2008 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/07/is-this-the-psp-skype-microphone-interface/
I don't doubt DarkAleX will figure out a way to load the skype_plugin.prx from the memory stick for the PSP-1000.
Don't worry, someone WILL make it work on the phat PSP.

References to it have been found in firmware version 3.10 and up since February 2007 as seen here:
