Japanese PSP owners will be disappointed to hear that they will not be using Skype this month, while the rest of the world does. The plug was pulled at the last minute, due to a problem with the PSP microphone peripheral.

While Sony Japan had originally prepared two first-party PSP compatible mic packages, they had failed in checking if the microphones actually met the Skyhpe specifications necessary for certification. As PSP users in North America and the rest of the world are using the PSP headset as the standard input device, they are not affected by this little blunder.
