Anonymous sources have told _Pocket-lint_ that Sony will be allowing rival smartphone maker HTC to have [PlayStation Certification][3] for its devices. An official announcement is expected at MWC at the end of the month, with devices able to play PSOne games and access to the Android-flavor of the [Sony Entertainment Network][4]. Former SCE Chairman (now company president) [Kaz Hirai ][5]introduced the program open to non-Sony devices at AsiaD [last year][6], possibly to the raised eyebrows of those in the company's revamped [mobile division][7].
