sony, as usual, are rushing out an uncompromised firmware in a hope to head off devhook/exploits/u.p.
this adds what they have got working to date (video rss) and of course the obligatory 'security updates' but i think this isnt going to be the great one. i think they will release it when this new firmware becomes compromised. i wouldnt be surprised if the new firmware breaks compatability with the modchip (meaning modchip users probably wont be able to use the new firmware and the 1.5) and of course epsilon wont work either so...anyway sorry for going way off topic.

my wish list - one big fat ass exploit when they release the ps1 emu

also:

i dont think they will make us pay for the firmware for the ps1 emu but i also think the emu wont be in the firmware entirely. i suspect they will have the main program in an encrypted eboot and the rest of the files in the firmware (the flash ram of the psp has very little space for extra stuff like an emu) except of course for the roms. it will be interesting to see how they can do it.

The firmware upgrade will only offer Video RSS? What a joke. Its only going to be another way to lock out homebrew. These are the 2 features I want to see in a new firmware:

1.) PSOne EMU
2.) 4GB storage limit raised to 8GB

New updates concern me. We are now so spoiled by DevHook and I fear that by the time the PSOne EMU comes out, the firmware my be really hard to emulate. Of course I have faith in the PSP Scene. Much has been said impossible but is now possible. Time will tell.

If they raise the storage limit, it should be for the true maximum MS size limit of 32GB...
The only reason for just 8GB would be to reserve higher sizes for bait to make people update!

Personally, I hope this update sucks even more than it sounds like it does.
Just so no one makes the mistake of updating!

***EDIT***
I'm not sure where I heard 32GB was the limit for MS size...
I think sony listed 8, 16 and 32 GB as future memory stick sizes that will be available on the PSP.

There isn't really a "true" limit... as long as the PSP supports FAT32?? (not FAT16?)
FAT16 limit = 4 GB (2 GB is the old standard though)
FAT32 limit = 2048 GB

If FAT16 is used then the firmware would need to be able to handle MS's with multiple partitions.
If FAT32 is used but can't go above 4 GB, then Sony has capped the max size in firmware, and just needs adjust the value.
