    Have it on my Android at the moment. It can't sign me in half the time, and when it does it force-closes. Don't waste your time.

    Version 1.0 is available in the UK, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and The Netherlands. While android users can get it either way, itunes is more particular about who gets what.

    The markets are region specific(ireland does not have it yet) and will be here soonish but you can install it with the .apk file but you need to change the option to allow non-market apps to work and it's free in either case.

    Haven't tried it myself and so don't know if which of the file would be legit so won't post any links have a google for playstation android .apk and make sure you confidant it's what it says it is before installing anything

    As Otacon said it sound like it doesn't work great and that may be due to the wrong region.

    I tried it yesterday..
    It's not great... UI is like a vertical XMB type affair, which doesn't lend itself too well to touchscreen.
    I had similar stability issues - others not experiencing the same.. so it could be just an android/phone version issue.

    Anyways - problem with it IMHO is that it doesn't give much if anything that doesn't already exist and doesn't do it in a good manner.

    Issues I have with it
    - friends list is not sorted in any particular way - not by name, not by online status.. impossible to tell how many friends are online, or who is online unless you scroll through your list. And with a full PSN friends list - thats 100 ppl!!
    - comparing trophies is only at a high level per game, e.g. I can see person A has X% done versus my Y% but can't see which trophies.
    - news and blog is wasted here - actually why have them seperated at all. All the news is in the Blog and vice versa!

    To be honest there is better out there.
    PS3 Trophies Lite App is far better

    Much more reliable and gives me widgets on my home screen to see friends online etc...

    Have it on mine, nice looking but has very few features and it used over 10 MB of data in about 5 mins, though i suppose it's just an initial download.

    Should be good with a few updates
