    iFlickr is a native application for iPhone's to access and use the service "Flickr".

    Changes:

    Tagging.
    Auto rotation of photos on flickr.
    Improved performance over EDGE. Now you can take a few pictures and minimize the application. It takes its time to upload over EDGE, and updates the number of pictures it is processing over the iflickr icon (The application now runs in background, and exits when it is finished uploading all the pictures)

    If you are sure to have the v1.02 iPhone Firmware on your baby, then you can UNLOCK it easily without hardware modification. Just follow the instruction on the linked page. Of course everything at your own personal risk.

    The software itself is LEGAL and considering that there are no commercial iPhone games yet, it will just enable you to try out homebrew stuff. We believe there is no economical damage at this time of posting.

    News/release from Slasher

    This game is going to be called Asterz. Simple, right?

    It's pretty basic right now. Use the analog to steer and move, yadda, yadda.

    Now here's the catch. This game is going to be constantly updated and made the way YOU want it to be.
    Tell me things to add. Weapons, powerups, enemies, anything. Tell me if you want physics tweaked, anything at all tweaked. I'll make the options completely able to tweak nearly every aspect of the game so you can get the settings YOU like - then tell me them

    This game is going to be molded and shaped the way you want it to. This is a community project and I hope people actually choose to contribute.

    Here's a screenie and a download of the latest build.
    This download link will be constantly updated with the latest build(I'll try and update the screenie as well).

    Back at Leipzig, SCEE announced that to coincide with the PSP Slim's launch in Europe they'd be releasing two limited edition variants of the handheld. One, a Simpsons PSP, would be yellow and come bundled with the new Simpsons PSP game. The other, a Spider-Man bundle, would include both Spider-Man 2 (the PSP game) and Spider-Man 3 (on Blu-Ray). Anyways, at launch there were no pictures of either model. Here, then, are the first pictures of both. (above) ...

    Apparently, Sony is offering a pretty sweet deal overseas, in Sweden at the very least. Anyone who purchases a full-HD TV from Sony, will get either a free Playstation 3 unit or a 200EU rebate on the TV. On top of that, with every HD Ready TV purchased, buyers will receive a free Sony PSP. NO word on if this deal is coming to the US, or what model PS3 or PSP is being given away. This should boost the PS3 numbers a ton, though. The ad says the deal runs from October 1 to November 31, 2007, so start saving up!

    The PSP-2000 is off to a great start in Japan, and it's not even officially out yet! Square Enix and Sony teamed up for a limited edition PSP-2000 bundle to accompany the 9/13 Japanese release of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. This is exactly one week before the PSP slim sees full release throughout the now leaderless nation.

    Included in the 25,890 yen bundle are a retail copy of Crisis Core, a specially crafted Crystal White PSP-2000 unit covered in Tetsuya Nomura artwork, and a Buster Sword strap. Retailers also threw in a Crisis Core inner earphone set, supposedly as a pre-order bonus, although anyone who lined up on launch day was given the gift. All this in a special box that just screams collectors' edition.

    This bundle was produced in limited quantities of just 77,777. This is two to three times what the PSP sells in an average week, so we were interested in seeing if the bundle would actually sell out, or if it would rot on store shelves like Square Enix's It's a Wonderful World DS Lite bundle.

    We headed out to our local Bic Camera in Tokyo's Shibuya area just before opening time and found a line of five people, with store managers encouraging passersby to queue up. Another Bic Camera in the area had a line about ten times as long, but it too was welcoming additional purchasers straight through opening time.

    Neither store was sold out immediately after opening. Two hours later, however, and we could no longer find the bundle at the few shops surrounding Shibuya Station.

    Based on reports from Famitsu.com, this scene was repeated throughout Tokyo, although on a larger scale depending on where you went. At the Ikebukuro Bic Camera, over 250 people had lined up outside of the shop forty-five minutes prior to opening. The Shinjuku Yodobashi Camera had a line of 300, and was sold out by the 10:00 opening time.

    Famitsu flexed its Japanese vocabulary and actually spoke to a few who had chosen to line up. Some customers said that they were purchasing the bundle because they happen to be Final Fantasy VII fans. Others were more interested in getting the slim model PSP in advance. Even our smaller scale Bic Camera in Shibuya had a few people inquire if the PSP-2000 could be purchased on its own.

    A major Square Enix executive was on hand at the Shinjuku Yodobashi. Famitsu cornered Crisis Core's executive producer Shinji Hashimoto, who commented, "This is the first time in the world that a third party has released a product bundled with a new system, so we were nervous. However, just seeing all these customers puts us a bit at ease."

    Famitsu also got some commentary from the Yodobashi staff, who confirmed that Crisis Core on its own managed extremely strong sales in its first day. Regarding the official launch of the PSP-2000 next week, a store representative said, "We expect customer turnout at today's level, or more. However, unlike today, it's not a limited edition, so it's doubtful that it will sell out in the AM hours."

    Sony was partially prepared for the PSP-2000's early release. It managed to ship out the special AV, D-terminal, S-Video and Component cables required to connect the new model to a television. Those who want the 1seg tuner or an extra battery pack will have to wait until 9/20.

    At the very least, Crisis Core's release and the apparent sellout of the bundle version should push the PSP's weekly sales total above the 77,777 mark. The real question by which the PSP's fortunes will be judged is how many current PSP owners will pick up the game by itself, and how many will line up next week for the standard PSP-2000 model. ...

    Freeplay one of the PSP Scenes best for hacking has decided to share all his investigations into the new PSP firmware 3.71, heres the full details:

    Well, like I did way back with 2.80/2.81 and 3.30, I've dug through all the module files in firmware 3.71 to see what I could find.

    Here's what I've found hidden in 3.71 so far. Take away from this whatever you want; hopefully it'll stir up some speculation and get people interested.

    * An official screenshot plugin, which saves either JPEG or PNG images to ms0:/PSP/SCREENSHOT, named *_####.JPG or *_####.PNG
    * Hints at an official web-based content service, possibly for buying music/videos
    * An Xbox Live style network gaming service, including the browser useragent strings related to it (PS3Community-agent/1.0.0 and PSP NP/1.0), using an XML-based method of communicating with the central server

    * When you stop viewing an image and return to the list, the image fades out instead of disappearing.

    * Custom themes are saved to flash1:/vsh/theme/custom_theme.dat . The 3.71 fw comes with the 'cookies' theme preinstalled, saved as flash0:/vsh/resource/custom_theme.dat .

    * The web browser reports the PSP's version as 3.70.

    * Registering your PSP with a LocationFree base station makes a file called ms0:/MSSONY/LF/REGISTER/REGISTME.ERD (??? not confirmed, just a guess).

    * The HTTP user agent for the LocationFree connection is "LFX HTTP Tunnel Client 1; model=LF-PSP, modeltype=6, generation=3, support=1/2/3, codec=0/2".

    * The exact Flash version is "Shockwave Flash 6.0 r72".

    * Licenses for DRM-enabled video will be stored as "/PSP/LICENSE/*.PNL", and the video *might* be stored as "ms0:/MPE_ROOT/100AEV01/*.MLV".

    * There's a reference to "ms0:/MP_ROOT/105ANV01/MAQ00991.MP4' for ... some ... reason.

    * The following game IDs listed in umdcache.prx, for whatever reason:
    ** UCAS-40025 (Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex - Territory of Hunter [Asia])
    ** UCES-00152 (Go! Sudoku [Europe])
    ** UCJS-10001 (Mina no Golf Portable [Japan])
    ** UCJS-10036 (Kazuo, a.k.a. Go! Sudoku [Japan])
    ** ULAS-42067 (Unknown [Asia])
    ** ULAS-42096 (UEFA Champions League 2006-2007 [Asia])
    ** ULES-00147 (Madden NFL '06 [Europe])
    ** ULES-00468 (Every Extend Extra [Europe])
    ** ULES-00599 (Star Wars - Lethal Alliance [Europe])
    ** ULES-00647 (Capcom Puzzle World [Europe])
    ** ULES-00699 (UEFA Champions League 2006-2007 [Europe])
    ** ULJM-05087 (Untold Legends: Brotherhood of the Blade [Japan])
    ** ULJM-05170 (Legend of Heroes, a.k.a. Eiyuu Densetsu - Sora no Kiseki FC [Japan])
    ** ULJM-05185 (Akudaikan Manyuuki [Japan])
    ** ULJM-05254 (Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, 10th anniversary bundle version [Japan])
    ** ULJM-05275 (Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, solo version [Japan])
    ** ULJS-00060 (Daito Giken Koushiki Pachi-Slot Simulator Yoshimune Portable [Japan])
    ** ULJS-00113 (Disgaea: Hour of Darkness Portable Tsuusin Taisen Hajimemasita [Japan])
    ** ULKS-46015 (Untold Legends - Brotherhood of the Blade [Korea])
    ** ULKS-46076 (Unknown [Korea])
    ** ULKS-46116 (DJ Max Portable 2 [Korea])
    ** ULUS-10024 (Madden NFL '06 [USA])
    ** ULUS-10095 (Go! Sudoku [USA])
    ** ULUS-10147 (Every Extend Extra [USA])
    ** ULUS-10184 (Coded Arms - Contagion [USA])
    ** ULUS-10217 (Capcom Puzzle World [USA])
    ** ULUS-10221 (UEFA Champions League 2006-2007 [USA])

    * audio.prx refers to ULJS-00019 (School Rumble: Nesan Jiken Desu [Japan]) for... some reason
    * isofs.prx refers to:
    ** ULES-00123 (Rengoku - The Tower of Purgatory [Europe])
    ** ULJM-05006 (Rengoku - The Tower of Purgatory [Japan])
    ** ULJM-05063 (SSX On Tour [Japan])
    ** ULJM-05127 (Dragon Quest & Final Fantasy in Itadaki Street Portable [Japan])
    ** ULUS-10013 (Rengoku - The Tower of Purgatory [USA])
    ** ULUS-10042 (SSX On Tour [USA])


    * utility.prx pays special attention to all the different regional versions of Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection. It's been suggested that this is because of the way the game uses PSP-specific savedata.
    * it also pays attention to:
    ** ULES00016 (Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower [Europe])
    ** ULJM05005 (Vampire Chronicle: The Chaos Tower [Japan])
    ** ULJM05026 (Star Soldier [Japan)
    ** ULUS10005 (Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower [USA])
    ** ULUS10021 (Midnight Club 3: Dub Edition [USA])

    * Some interesting registry entries:
    ** /CONFIG/NETWORK/GO_MESSENGER

    * References to files that don't exist, either because they're not made yet or because they're for the devkit only:
    ** flash0:/kd/npdrm_tool.prx
    ** flash0:/kd/usbserial.prx
    ** flash0:/kd/usbgps_serial.prx

    * lfatfs.prx refers to flashfat4, flashfat5, lflash0:0,4 and lflash0:0,5. These devices don't exist on the slim; at least, I couldn't assign them as devices myself. Attempting to do so returns error 0x8001000D.

    * loadexec_02g.prx refers to a new execution mode - 'umdemu', to go along with game, vsh, and updater.

    * mpegbase_260.prx refers to ULJS00006 (Soukyuu no Fafner [Japan])

    * np_auth.prx refers to all sorts of weird stuff, like:
    ** the words "Lediatio Lunto Ritna"
    ** something called X-I-5, with a version of 2.1, which appears to be related to submitting 'tickets' to https://auth.??.ac.playstation.ne t/nav/auth; probably related to logging onto the network play service

    * the pops plugin uses a PS1 BIOS called 'System ROM Version 4.5 05/25/00 J', which is apparently the same as the 3.70 one (as indicated by the partial SVN path 'branches/pops-370/src(r5808)' in pops.prx)

    * both umdman.prx and umdcache.prx contain the entire UMD_DATA.BIN file from ULJS-00001 (Ridge Racers [Japan])

    * content_browser.prx appears to be some sort of convoluted multifunction plugin... I've found references to widgets/MusicAlarmTime.cpp which implies some sort of musical alarm clock, but also to what appears to be a music player (maybe)
