2.0 Firmware upgrade

Hia folks,

Well it looks like people who stick to older firmwares will be loosing out on some advanced PSP features soon. Some of the features on the list in the new 2.0 Firware update that will be released on or soon after July the 27th will be:

Built in web browser.

Support for viewing TIF, GIF and BMP's

Background wallpaper

An extra protocol for connecting to wireless LANs - WPA-PSK (TKIP.)

Obviously the two big ones will be the Browser and security protocol. But for a full list of features, visit here.

TTFN,
Clare.

clare, why do you feel like reminding me? i dont want to think about that, its SO HARD TO CHOOSE, metal slug/2.00 firmware... hm....

well unless 2.00 has a keyboard and more palm type things, and a camera, then i wont be interested...

Actually wouldn't it be good if it had USB keyboard support. A mini USB keyboard would be kewl!!!!

that is what a meant, a psp sized keyboard, i really want somehting i can type with on the psp! im a writer!!!

The only thing that's gonna make me want to upgrade my PSP Firmware is if I have to for newer games that are comming out in the fall like the Star Wars and Marvel games. I think the web browser and that kind of stuff is just a waste on the PSP. I can see pic file types being a nice added feature but don't you think if Sony can do it the hackers/coders won't be far behind?

To be honest, I think you will all upgrade your firmware in the end. Newer PSPs are guaranteed to come out with the latest firmware on them. in 3 years time anyone who doesn't upgrade will be out of date.

I have heard that Sony will eventually introduce more applications into the firmware too.

Imagine this, I don't think the coders are going to be happy with a tiny ammount of people running their software, they will always find a way to crack the system. And I think the built in browser is going to be very tempting.....

hmmm, version 2.0 for more fixes, or version 1.5 for emu with classic gaming portable :D. I'll stick with 1.5 until the developers make it compatible to the new firmware. Which probably won't happen, being as sony is. hehe

someone needs to make a homebrew web browser!!! Thats the only thing tempting me to upgrade to 2.0 (when the official US release of the firmware comes out) SO ALL U CRACKERS GET TO IT!!

i just updated mine, web browser works very very well, the bookmarks feature is nice too, overall very very nice update, i rele dun miss my EMU's and games that much, w/e i bet 2.0 will be cracked soon enough
