boring!......
I WON'T update!!

no apparant security updates... perhaps the psar dumper/mph loader will work with this as well? oh well... I won't try 'till the mph loader has more stuff working anyway

why did they update it again?
what they added seems to be very unintressting and not really usable.
did the community found a 2,5 exploit which they want to update?

None of the updates interest me. There isn't even anything remotely interesting in this new update compared to 2.50. IF YOUR GOING TO UPDATE just go upt to 2.50. . .at least there working on an exploit for that. If in the future we can take pics with the new firmwares or record video straight onto the stick than i will consider updating until than

suck it Sony

You=stupid.

God Sony get on my goat. Really bit of a nothin' upgrade just so newly developed games will require a later firmware forcing a mass update ala GTA.

Once they get flash support I'll be happy. Flash games on little ol' PSP would be pretty gnarly.

how does the wma sound on here, any body try the update? is it worth it?

the only reason i'd upgrade to a non-reversible firmware is when i can view media files through url

Yea, that would be the only reason i would update too
