Firmware 5.0 Demo: PlayStation Store on PSP

[wraggster]

Hi everyone, as Eric mentioned in his post yesterday, we wanted to give you a live demo of the PSP’s direct access to PlayStation Store, which will be coming with the 5.00 firmware update. Now whenever your PSP is connected to the Internet over WiFi, you’ll be able to download and enjoy the latest games, demos and trailers on the go without needing to sync up to your PS3 or PC. Here’s a brief walk-through of what you’ll experience.

Only thing that I can see that may be a problem with this is what happens if you drop your psp, knock it down, accidentally turn it off, or it dies, while downloading something you just bought?
Hopefully there's a resume download button.

I'm pretty sure you can redownload all permanent (eg not rented movies) things.

Great feature. This was needed a while ago. Very late but that's better than never.
