did anyone notice that PS2Cover.come spelled Platinum "Platiunum"

back on topic, this looks like a really nice mod chip. i can't wait for better and maybe cheaper chips to come out soon (i hope).

[El Payo]

How reliable are these guys as a supplier? Anyone buy from them before?

Nobody thinks that this is worth 50 quid?
The other week i was gonna pay 150 quid for a fw 2.7 PSP!
My 1.0 for homebrew/emulators, and the new 2.7 psp for 1.5+ umd games/movies...

News of this modchip came out just in time, I was gonna buy the new psp this week...
Now I have no need to buy a second psp as I can stick fw 2.7 on this mod chip.
So it's already saving me £100 and I won't have to carry two PSPs around!

lol... and I like how you spelt their website address...

hehe, my bad lol

btw, the proper word would be spelled, not spelt

[kimbonious]

I want Installation Diagram. Before i pre-order i wanna know if i can do it or not.

[ritz]

Yea im with you. How easy is it to install? Do I have to do any soddering or is a plug n play application.

[Nasty Nate]

i think that you will have to solder it

is PS2cover a worldwide shipper, or just to europe or something?, i couldn't find it on the website

hehe, my bad lol

Depends. Spelt is used mainly in Britain. Spelled is American English, where as Spelt is the equivalent in British English :-D

Back on topic:

This is a lifesaver, I was getting ready to shell out more money for another PSP, since I want the benefits of the updates as well as the benefits of homebrew.

As well, I am tired of not being able to play multiplayer GTA LCS, since none of my friends have a damn PSP and I have two, 1 of which does not work with the MPH Game Loader (since its 1.0 PSP). This mod chip will give me the best of both worlds.

Considering that the mod chip is coming with a spool of copper wire, my guess is that we need to solder it. Being the do-it-yourselfer that I am, I will take a stab at it, but hope to god that I dont screw up
