Well if I can get my hands on a PSP headset by the time the GoNintendo Brawl tournament starts, I plan to use this feature.

Why not just use the program on your comp?

I think Skype will be a nice feature. It's really great for those international calls.

true....but the psp could only function as a phone when your on a wireless hotspot..... so really i think its a dumb feature. because if your have to be around wi fi to talk to some one that could be troublesome.

um, what? that makes no sense.
you would like to skype with someone who is standing next to you?

the purpose of skype is to talk over the internet, so yeah, you have to be around a wifi-spot. thats the whole point of it.

its kinda nice. on the ds, VOIP is already possible. not official, though, but via homebrew-applications.

Didn't Metroid Prime Hunters have that? I don't own it so I'm not 100% sure. I thought you could talk via mic before a game set up.

yes, you can talk before a match in hunters.
in advance wars: days of ruin, you can also talk while playing.

but i was talking about dedicated voip-applications, not games with a voicechat-function.

It's not that significant. It only has the call functions of skype, and not the chat functions. And the headset isn't available to the US market yet.

Is the SKYPE application for the Iphone completely free? I downloaded the free application and placed a call to Germany no problem. Today I received an email from Skype saying my first call is free and mentioning a small monthly service fee. I did not enter any credit card or bank info when I registered. Is there a fee to use this supposed "free" download?

I don't use Skype, so that'd be a no.
