Dark Alex has released a PSAR dumper for it already. I hope we get a CFW version very soon because I want that fullscreen video out without needing FuSa!!

I'm not fully sure but I think full screen gaming only applies to PS1 software.

It states Playstation Software not PSP Software.

I think this is a worthy update to hope for a custom firmware version. I imagine Dark_AleX must have his hands full right now with many people also wanting the PSP-3000 to be CFW enabled.

This week is a good week to donate to Dark_AleX. It will show continued and renewed appreciation for all that he has done and is doing.

Can someone please verify? Because being able to run PSP software in full-screen (and interlaced!) would be freakin' awesome

"-- Video-out -- The PSP-2000's video-out feature will be able to display classic PlayStation format titles at the full-screen size of the TV that the PSP is connected to; the feature also will support interlace displays."

Sounds like psx only :(

I would say it's true, PS1 game are kind of emulated so the screen resolution can be changed. PSP games are hard coded.

Making 5.00 sounds like "hey this is a major update. I should do update" to the unknowing masses. Plus under the hood they did change a hole lot stuff.
