Sony drops Go! Messenger serviceDVDBack23 @ Feb 24, 2009 06:01 | 2 comments
The package, which was jointly developed by Sony and BT, allows users to send voice, video and instant messages to other Go!Messenger users from any wireless Internet connection, and will work over wireless Internet - including that provided by the 2,500-plus BT Openzone hotspots around UK city centers.
The service, although interesting, lacked users, and Sony decided it was time pull the plug.
"Although Go! Messenger brought innovative communications features to the PSP community, the service has not developed the base of users that we were hoping for," noted Sony.
"Although it proved a popular concept, achieving a significant number of registrations, it didn’t gain the number of regular users that BT and SCEE were aiming for."
The service will end on March 31st. |
