Skype launches on PlayStation Vita

Yes of course the Skype Video and Voice app for will hit the PlayStation Store later today in the US, working on both 3G+Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi only models. Gamers will be able to download the free app from the PlayStation Store

One of the interesting features of this app is that users will be able to flip between the front and rear cameras on the PlayStation Vita, which makes it handy for chatting and showing things, without needing to turn the device around.

The app itself takes full advantage of Skype’s voice and video technology, utilising the Vita’s front and rear cameras to cater for face-to-face chats. It will run in the background, immediately pausing a game when a call comes through and in some cases may operate during gameplay.Add some credit to the Skype application and it becomes a cheap and easy way to call landlines and mobile phones directly from the gaming handheld.
