New Firmware 3.0 Screens ?

[Zephyroth_drgs]

write pad? did i miss something? i suposse that u need a keyboard or some other device... ure not going to write down a mail using the standar psp interface input... -_-!

[Libernullmal]

I want my keyboard. I think 3.0 needs something else....like sega channel only call it PSP Channel and it has games, and other things like that.. Yes and then you can put a easy speak app on it and use it like your phone... then next they can integrate it with my flux capacitor and we will never have to worry about zombified purple bunnies screwing our brains trying to make them eat there cereal..mmmm cereal...um I mean uh eggs and bacon.

here is an image from pspcrazy.com:



Apparently its an organiser of some sort.

anyway, on thing i notices is that the image showin mac address is empty in this version of the image and looks obviously edited:


I am not convinced, not really by the above points, but also the idea of it.

this seems ok i wouldent upgrade

3.0 Features
Paint - We have a nice Lua Paint app
Write - we have a homebrew one
Orgnizer - im prity sure one was made
Music Store - Who needs it (cheap rip of itunes)


My advice

• If gta hack works on 3.0 and you have 2.5/2.6 then update to 3.0

• if you have 2.01 Stick it out, there will be a downgrader

• Below, Dont go past 2.0

They can call it gold, silver, platinum, etc. etc. 3.0 firmware = 0.0 homebrew. I won't be upgrading unless Sony starts supporting and encouraging homebrew and I hope every PSP owner stops upgrading. Its not worth it.

If they are already working on a new iteration of the PSP, then I'll wait for that which will come with the latest firmware pre-installed. The current PSP doesn't stand to benefit from upgrading.

these pictures are FAKE... compare the icons and fonts of the pictures to your psp. it will definitely tell that its fake. turn on your psp and go to a main icon "Network" or something. next to all the icons it has its name like "LocationFree Player" or something when an icon is selected, in the psp..the icons above the main icon should only show the icon without the name. in the fake photo where it shows you Music Store, above that is NETWORK then WWW, next to WWW it says Internet Broswer..when it shouldn't... and if you look at your psp clock it should say the TIME and PM or AM next to it, in these photos it just show the time in some funny font without AM or PM. And if you look closely at the battery icon in the fake photo....looking at the positive(left side of battery) side.. its much larger than the PSP's battery icon positive side...people should look closely at these pictures before thinking its real. when i glimpsed at these photos i thought they were real too. but if these photos are real then i would get excited =/ oh yeah, if you take a look at the Music icon in the psp it has more of a chubby look, in these photos its thin. also take a look at psp's video icon... the three blocks on the side of the big block has rounded edges. but in the fake picture, the video icon's blocks has straight edges. these pictures do not prove that its real, it proves that they're fake. on more thing! i was able to see these differences with my psp, at pspupdates.com you can enlarge the photos and i saved them to psp and zoomed in the pictures with my psp really close . the pics that claimed to be from CES looks fake also. some guy just photoshopd this or something, sony does not want to attract people with some gay apps, and releasing a writepad before keyboard is out?!

Hummm, if Sony would put more PDA style apps, that would be nice no doubt. But I think that a smart move would be to allow homebrew programs to run freelly, just not the iso loaders (altought that would be kinda hard to control).

[Hidavi]

OMg, can we please stop with the fake shots? They suck and they are obviously fake. The Network icon doesn't show any browser above or below the "music store" subitem. Also, why would sony put, "Connect to Music Store" as opposed to, "Connect Music Store"? It doesn't make sense. After all, they put, "LocationFree Player" in the 2.5 menu, named right after the actual service.

I think it's real, yo. Who would go out of their way just make some stupid Paint Shop Pro pics or something? What rise would they get out of this? they won't really get a tangible reaction. The other thing is, I think they're getting ideas from the homebrew scene. they're cutting it off, then stealing ideas. PSPaint or LUA Alarm clock anyone?

I agree with you grinch, and also its a test firmware so it could have been changed to see what looks good and dat. But the ps3 icon should be diff, the 3 looks too far away from the PS...... I dunno, but i hope it is real.
