PSP Firmware v2.81 Decrypted! (Yes the New Firmware)

if a new firmware can be decrypted the same way as an old one, maby you should try and keep that a secret and hope the people ofer at sony don't recognize it so they won't try and fix it.

Sony's attitude will change once Microsoft releases it's own handheld with homebrew support. Microsoft is already dabbling with homebrew with it's $99.00 a year bit for homebrew developers with the Xbox 360. If all goes well here then hopefully Microsoft will make it's handheld homebrew enabled right out of the box.

It really does seem like sony just can't keep up,unless they don't want to and just do the updates to not upset the licsensed game companies.
Really, sony has supported homebrew,they just can't do it fully because they make their money from the licsenses and devkits.
I still think sony is playing both sides of the coin to obtain a greater market share.
