Sony changed the plug on the PSP with the 2001 series. The original plug is thicker and has three contacts on each side of the rectangular part of the plug (3.5mm headphone jack is standard on both). The new plug is thinner and has more contacts (5 or 6.. I haven't bought a remote). I too bought a headset for skype but found that it was only for the old PSP.

I have a PSP and a few games for it which benefit from the headset, and for that purpose it works nicely. The audio is somewhat lacking on bass compared to my other slip-over headphones and the mic is a little tricky to get in place every time I put these on. Aside from those issues they work fine when playing SOCOM/etc.; I can hear everyone and everyone can hear me.
However, this headset also has an additional perk which Sony probably should have made a bit more clear: it uses a basic "4-pole" stereo plug to interface with the PSP remote, the same plug configuration used in various portable devices and, most prominently, the iPhone. The plug even fits into the annoyingly small opening on the iPhone without the need for an adapter and gives you both headphone and microphone functionality, and since the audio quality is roughly the same between this headset and the iPhone's included ear buds (a little better actually) I have started using the headset in favor of the ear buds, which hurt
