According to Gamasutra, the new feature will include a contact list manager which will allow users to view existing user and add new ones as well as see which of their PSP contacts are online and available to talk.
Skype users will be able to make free calls to other PSP's and to PC's and, for an added cost, will be able to make calls to landlines and mobiles via an assigned phone number. The new feature will only be available on the PSP Slim which was launched in September.
