Mere days after Sony confirmed the existence
of the so-called PlayStation Phone, the tech rumor mill is already buzzing about a PlayStation tablet.
The device, which could hit stores as early as September, is said to sport a 9.4-inch screen and is powered by the Android 3.0 “Honeycomb” operating system with a strong focus on media and gaming.
With Apple taking an increasingly large bite of the 
mobile gaming space, Sony has taken out the big guns in an effort to win back market share.
The company has unveiled the Xperia Play — better known as the PlayStation Phone — at the ongoing Mobile World Congress.
Due in March, the device will be available exclusively through Verizon in the U.S. market and will lead the charge of cell phones capable of playing PlayStation titles.
Tired of Apple hogging of the spotlight 
in mobile gaming, Sony has unveiled the world’s first cell phone that will play PlayStation games.
The Xperia Play, made by the company’s Sony Ericsson division, will launch this March. The Android-powered phone will come with several titles preloaded (including The Sims 3) and up to 50 games from the system’s top franchises available for download.
The worst kept secret in the cell phone world has finally been formally 
acknowledged. Sony Ericsson has taken the wraps off of the Xperia Play, better known as the PlayStation Phone.
Verizon will be the sole distributor of the device starting this March. The phone will be supported by a catalog of up to 50 games, with four titles preloaded onto the device.
We certainly have no problem getting caught up in the fun of playing games, but the people who create them have their pocketbooks to worry about, too. In this column, finance expert and GameSpy contributor

While the Internet has been buzzing about leaked images and details of what seems to be a prototype PlayStation Phone from Sony Ericsson, the debate has generally circled around whether the leaks were real or faked. The question no one seems to be asking is: Is this a good idea in the first place?
Just for the sake of argument, let’s assume Sony is, in fact, working on a PlayStation Phone. The company, after all, hasn’t done much to quell the rumors, with CFO Masato Kato stirring the embers during a quarterly results conference call earlier this month when he said “The PSP … was more concentrated I’d say [at the] core gaming segment rather than the light game, but now we are addressing that market as well.”
