He now has three great kids and full access to all of the Portuguese food he can eat. Joe's love for mobile technology began when he bought his first Palm Pilot, a Palm M130 and left it on top of his car, driving off, causing it to smash into a thousand pieces. Forced to buy a new device, he quickly discovered that specs were changing so rapidly he was buying a new device every six months just to keep up. Since then, he has constantly felt the need to have the latest and greatest. When the "smartphone" revolution began and integrating cell phones and PDA's was the norm, he quickly jumped to Windows Mobile for several years until the first Android device was launched, the T-Mobile G1. Joe began appreciating all of the free utilities Google provided and sold his soul (his precious data) to Google long before they got into the mobile OS business. So, there was no hesitation at all for him to jump on board and ride the Android train as an early adopter. And boy has it been a blast. Joe now works in the Engineering & Operations dept for a major mobile carrier where he remotely troubleshoots cell sites and loves being an Editor for TalkAndroid.

That’s all well and good, but how about some REAL games?

Sony have previously shown that the Xperia PLAY (“PlayStation phone”) is capable of running the PSP (PlayStation Portable) version of LittleBigPlanet, LocoRoco and God of War… So where are they?

And even if Sony stick to PlayStation/PSOne games, the list of available PlayStation/PSOne games hasn’t become any bigger since the release of the Xperia PLAY (“PlayStation phone”) – at the time of writing, there is just NINE PlayStation/PSOne titles available since launch, with no new titles on the horizon!
