Some info on Atrac3 and the PsP keyboard - PSP-Forum.com

Ok for those of you that want to use the Atrac3 format, you have to use sound stage which you can download for free from sony. You also have to have a memory stick duo, or pro duo that has magic gate on it. Also sound stage converts your mp3's to atrac3 then you use it to access your PsP and transfer the files. Ok now I also found this the other day, aparently a company has made a keyboard for the PsP and is releasing it around March 27, there is a picture below. IMO that means that Sony will be making the chat feature available sometime around then. The nice bonus I noticed about the keyboard is that it looks like it will flip up and double as a screen protector.

With a keyboard, think of the extra keys available for games. This would make games like Conflict Freespace (a pc space game) suitable for use on the PSP, because of the wide range of commands the game uses...

even with a keyboard like that, it would be to small to have functions for gameplay because the keys are just too small. good for like IM and other stuff, but im not sure if you can type fast enough during gameplay to chat with or anything like that.
