VNC connection on Sony PSP
Wednesday October 19th 2005, 1:19 am Category: Nokia 770 specs, Nokia 770 links

PortableGadgets runs a guide on doing a remote wireless VNC connection from Sony PSP.

Have you ever wanted to get online with a smaller device when you’re at home? Laptop doesnt’ seem small enough, while the Nokia 770 isn’t available yet.

Sony PSP seems to be one of the devices to give N770 a run for the money, if the Internet browser and productivity apps will ever successfully run on that platform. Bright screen, large user base, pretty significant availability of games and WiFi support make it a hit today and might impact 770 sales tomorrow.

PSP doesn’t have a touchscreen so it really needs a keyboard to make txt entry bearable. Onscreen keyboards are really annoying (not just on the PSP).

Are connectable keyboards available for the PSP yet? I didn’t find any doing a quick search.

As the owner of a PSP, let me say that they are fab for games, but they totally suck as a web browser. No touch screen + no keyboard = grief.

Bring on the 770!

sony psp has a good screen… just protection from sony make it from reaching is full potential… and not everyone has fireware 2.0

sooner or later sony will realize a killer app that will require the latest firmware… by then nokia 770 should be out ;)

i just hope nokia’s video features are on par so that i can get rid of the psp completlety

I now have both (bought my 770 at CompUsa last night) and I see them as two totally different machines- though I love em equally. The 770 is for email and web, maybe PIM as well if I intall the additional apps, but it will never come close to the PSP for games as far as I know (I’m not too fond of emulators for old 8 bit games). It’s not designed for them. Both the PSP and 770 are decent media players, I may give a nod to the 770 because of the different video formats it can handle, but if you’re willing to convert what ever video you download from the internet into mp4 for the PSP, the larger screen is hard to beat there. Web on the PSP is an after-thought at best. Seem to work ‘OK’, but chokes on various content too often for my tastes. Oh well, just my $.02.
