Thanks for the video btw
nice deniska.
crossing my fingers for you
i need a gps receiver to make this work though right?
Just if you want to use the GPS functionality...Originally Posted by LAMPRO
You can still use it w/o GPS for viewing maps, etc..
Also, the application is configured to startup in "FAKEFEED" mode, to demo the GPS stuff using pre-recorder NMEA feed...
check the config file if you want to change that part..
Here's a mirror for the your file.

Thanks, but I am not sure if I am allowed to do that according to compo rules..Originally Posted by wraggster

but mirror them on the psp site so as not to harm your entry
Has anyone tried this with 2.5 yet?
I have a ceramic white japanese 2.5 and can't find a japanese 2.6 firmware file to upgrade with so that I could try to downgrade to 1.5. If anyone can help out with this it'd be great, thanks.
Thanks,
Jay
