Chat Anywhere?

The Go!Explore device is more than just annoyingly named though as the GPS device protrudes out of the top of the PSP massively, which is sure to be a pain. Still, as it is the Go!Explore device is quite a clever and useful app which will doubtlessly be of use to games journalists who get lost between press trips.

Not that that ever happens to us. Honest.

Sony has also taken the chance to unveil another PSP attachment at Leipzig GC though, this time going by the name of Go!Messenger, which is apparently powered by BT.

Go!Messenger is a completely wireless communication system, capable of voice, text and video chat by using some swanky VOIP technology. The system is also free to use from any wireless internet connection, using an on-screen keyboard in the most simple form though it can also be upgraded using a microphone and camera attachment.

So, while the PSP may not be the gaming platform of choice for everyone, it is slowly becoming more versatile as an all-in-one device and could soon be an invaluable addition to every urban survival kit.

I don't know what to say about this thing. I guess I am one of the oldies but goldies. I think the laptop is the solution for everything. Why choosing that type of keyboard when you can use a regular one? I also think that the pc games are cooler than PSP. My platform of choice is definitely the PC.

I think its a young persons thing to have to have the tv , pc, email, games , and now chat rooms with them everywhere they go , I dont see any need myself to have to take a chat room or the other stuff with me in the car, or while im walking the dog or anywhere else just seems like technology for its own sake not for any real reason

I think you are right. Technology has its precise purpose. We shouldn't make abuse of it. I think we are all addicted to it. It would be very hard for me to quit using the internet, the PC and the mobile phone in a world where they are indispensable for life.

think thats a bit hard to deal with im not to into all this carry around tecnical stuff , but i guess if you were stuck somwhre and you wanted a chat it would be a good idea but that stuff is pretty hard to use, be pretty good if you were a long distance driver or something thow

Technology is very important. I guess you are right, toots. As you were saying, not everybody can use these things. Although, they are quite nice. They are probably perfect for a quick chat. I haven't had the opportunity to test them but I guess I will be delighted.

Sincerely, I've never used such thing. It sounds great. You have so many possibilities and important things to carry with you and it's really good if you want to have a little chat and see naked girls but it's not too much use if you want to undress in front of the web-cam smile

MMM, thanks for passing the information along. Sounds very interesting. I guess you could say the more the merrier, when it comes to ways to get connected.
Should broaden the market quiet a bit.

I must agree with just about everybody here, I think we may all be of an age where these new gadgets just dont interest us , i cant see any need to vistit a chat room or any other place while im at the supermarket doing the shopping perhaps younger people do as phones seem to have taken over their lives

where is your spirit of adventure
Just imagine there you are in the produce while you are about to finger a nice blumb juicy melon when this chick with DDD melons comes on. It is almost like real effect. Angel

Or another scenerio.
You are at the Library reading a book (well you are trying to) when the sexy fantasy teacher is entering the webchat. Won't you be inspired to study really "hard"?

I hope you know I am just kidding right. Couldn't help myself.

oops my message didnt show up , so here it is again , I dont like this take it with you anywhere thing , like most of the posts before mine I think its a young persons thing I dont need to go to a chat room or anywhere else while I am at the supermarket doing my shopping , young people are glued to any kind of hand held gizmo and cant seem to live without them

Roco · MegaMan Joined: 12 Sep 2007

I think it's funnier to see a priest entering a web-cam sites and having a chat with his fantasy while other people are doing the "forgive me, father, cause I have sinned" thing. smile

Even if the youngsters are glued to this type of gadgets, we have to admit that we wouldn't imagine life without internet, computer and a cell phone.

yes I am also with the majority here , sounds like a stupid idea , its like my phone it has a camera in it , think ive used it twice total waste of time like so many of these things they are just gimmicks of no real practical use unless you are a 14 year old then you simply must have one

here we are old foggys and are seriously discussing the advances in technology and if we should have sex in grocery stores well virtually I mean, while youngsters may watch us.

LOL, they see more then we do and no technology has taken it too far, but we are the ones that buy it and drive the market on.

when I put this article up in the first place I assumed it would not be popular for all the reasons people have said in their posts i think we perhaps slighty older people just are not interested in this kind of tech stuff , so i cant see chat rooms getting a big boost from this new toy
