A group of analysts including EEDAR's Jesse Divnich have stated that the future of the should be mobile possibly in alliance with Google's platform.

The group of analysts all agreed that should seriously consider creating a PlayStation phone possibly with the device powered by the Android OS.

Janco Partners' Mike Hickey was the most direct saying: "Sony should team up with Google, for a PSP-Droid device."

Divnich added: "I'd like to see the next PSP platform to go truly mobile with a wireless service provider. The hardware, despite the refreshes, are getting a little long in the tooth themselves, and I believe this presents a competitor a prime opportunity to capture the growing smart phone market with a fresh looking platform. Of course, much like the iPad, there should be an option to purchase a stand-alone version without mobile capabilities."
