Title: Sony Ericsson Xperia Play Coming Next Month

I think I am going to pick this up, because my Verizon contract is up, and it is more powerful than the original Droid (which I have).  Also, I have an NES emulator on my droid, and the only thing I don't like about it is the controls.  This thing is the iPhone killer to me, just because of the awesome physical buttons.  I hope it has full access to the PSN, with PSP games.

If only the slide out controls could flip around to reveal a full qwerty keyboard on the opposite side.  Then this would be the perfect phone.

Anyone else going to get one of these?

I'd like to see it in person first :P

that does look tasty. I'm a little puzzled by the specs (processor is 1ghz - there are phones out now that are faster, shouldn't a gaming phone be as fast as is currently possible?) But I'm happy with my Droid, and its keyboard.

if you go for this, you might look into 8pen:

8pen looks horrifying to me.  However, I am sure if I never used a normal keyboard, then I would be horrified of one too.
