Well here we go again folks! A few days after Microsoft revealed the latest Windows Phone 7 operating system with Xbox LIVE support, Sony has also confirmed that it will integrate the PlayStation Network service in the upcoming models of Sony Ericsson phones. According to Howard Stringer, Chairman, CEO and President of the Sony Corporation, this is part of an ongoing initiative to bring PSN to as many Sony hardware devices as possible:

PSN is a not so secret weapon in the rapidly-evolving networked era. Leveraging PSN, we are building a new network service that will connect many more network-enabled products, including Sony Bravias, Vaios, and Blu-ray players. To satisfy the demand for more open systems, and to broaden the array of networked devices connected to our network services, we are committed to extending that service to Sony Ericsson mobile phones.

As part of these initiatives, we are also exploring consistent user interfaces across Sony and Sony Ericsson products to ensure a seamless and integrated experience for the consumer

Unfortunately, Sony wasn’t able to reveal the extent of the service as of the moment. Stay tuned.
