PSP Go! Messenger

Firstly, if you donch know what the PSP Go! Messenger is all about.. donch worry.. i didn’t know till today.  And yes.. we’ve owned a PSP before.. and it was use to watch movies for my kid when we were traveling on vacation.  So when i learned that it was canceled due to lack of subscriber for this service.. it is definitely no surprises.

Launched just 9 months ago with BT, Go! Messenger allowed owners of the PSP and the optional Go! Cam videocam to send texts, chat and make video calls to other PSP users via Wi-Fi hotspots. It was touted as a big step forward in making the PSP a functional communications device as well as a handheld gaming and entertainment console.

“Although Go! Messenger brought innovative communications features to the PSP community, the service has not developed the base of users that we were hoping for. Although it proved a popular concept, achieving a significant number of registrations, it didn’t gain the number of regular users that BT and SCEE were aiming for. We’d like to thank all fans of Go!Messenger and are sorry to have to make this announcement.”
