PlayStation Launching Android and iPhone Apps “Very Soon”

It sucks they’re not launching in the US initially, but I’m guessing they’re trying to throttle network stress. The app doesn’t sound super exciting, but don’t underestimate the value of being able to mastubatorily (If that’s not a word, it should be) look at your own trophies on the go.

Frankly, I wish Microsoft would go cross-platform with Xbox Live Mobile. Locking themselves into Windows Phone 7 puts themselves at a disadvantage if Sony’s willing to spread the love. At the very least, give me the features I get from just going to Xbox.com.

With the 1.0 versions, users will be able to monitor their PlayStation Network trophies as well as friends’ games and online statuses. The apps will also deliver gaming news and PlayStation announcements, and it will let users share news or interesting product details via Twitter, Facebook and email.
