It's a board game with 9 x 9 rows. Some random numbers are placed here and there and you have to fill out the board with numbers from 1 to 9 so that every line both horisontaly and vertically has only one number from between 1 and 9. If that makes sense.
Im sure someone with better english skills than me can describe it better.

No, there's a grid of 3x3 big boxes, and then 9x9 smaller boxes. The object of the game is to put numbers 1-9 in each of the smaller boxes. The only rules are that you cannot put the same number in any row, column, or bigger box.
Here's an example:

So the numbers 1-9 have to be in each of the 9 large boxes, and only one of each number can be in each row and column.
edit: yeah, what Xrenity says below.

It's relatively easy (compared to crossword puzzles) to create a program which generates a limitless supply of sudoku puzzles of varying difficulty (the example in Xrenity's post is an extremely easy one). Most likely your local newspaper already has a daily sudoku puzzle in it and it's often done by commuters, so a handheld version is no surprise. There were already a few homebrew PSP versions of it before an official PSP version was announced, and I wouldn't be surprised if a DS version popped up. Plenty of them for PDA's too.
A bit disappointing that the recently released Ultimate Puzzle Games for the GBA doesn't have any Sudoku puzzles, though it makes up for that with plenty of crosswords, cryptics, and wordseekers.

Sudoku is great for those "bored at work so do a Sudoku puzzle instead" moments. I wasted all my lunch breaks this summer playing Sudoku :lol
PC game doesn't interest me but PSP Sudoku sounds like a brilliant idea tbh. That's the kind of thing I'd like to see the PSP have instead of PS2 ports and unoriginal games/sequels
