PSP Skype headset coming to the US

9 May 2008 14:15 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 4 comments

Retailers in the United States have begun stocking up on the new PSP Headset Kit for Skype which should be available from retail outlets within the next month. The set is currently available in the US from a few e-tailers and in Japan.

The set includes "street-style earphones, an adjustable boom mic, and a remote control for managing volume without reaching for the PSP itself."

The only requirements for the headset is that you have at least version 3.9 PSP firmware. The set "doubles as a communicator for games that support voice chat as well as a command system for games with voice recognition."

The MSRP is $30 USD but price is mixed depending on the e-tailer.
