Someone was browsing through Stuff while in the grocery store and found a picture of the PSPhone. We have no official word from Sony about their PSPhone being a slider or that they are working on a Phone with PSP branding. The slider concept above does look awesome. Apparently, the tactile controls are all located underneath and extend beyond the screen when you slide the phone back. looks cool to me.
The YouTube video is quite awful. The picture above tells you everything.

[...] PSPhone or PSP Phone, whatever Sony Ericsson will end up calling it, the two photos posted here is probably what it will look. Patent applications from SE has just been leaked showing us a touchscreen device with an accelerometer for upright and landscape viewing. There’s a phone mode, browser mode, and MP3 mode and the device goes to gaming mode automatically when held horizontally (landscape view). The buttons are all virtual and have a different setup depending on what mode it is in. The horizontal mode displays gaming buttons. The built-in Haptics should ensure that gaming experience is not that much different than on tactile buttons. Curiously, the virtual buttons on “phone mode” [image after the break) is very similar to the tactile buttons on many Sony Ericsson phones now. [...]
