This has got to be a bad mobo to get

That really sucks, does Sony really think this will help stop piracy and stuff? I mean how many people would have actually bought a PSP if they could not run Homebrew?

I would have if they had released some good games earlier on.

I would suggest that less than 2% of psp owners worldwide are aware of homebrew... so I doubt this makes a damn bit of difference to most people. Those in the know will buy an older model

maybe...just maybe it has something to do with their memory for the firmware. lol someone should check that out

Maybe it comes shipped with 2.8 and doesn't recognize any older firmware, so a no go with downgrades. If you brick it trying to do so, maybe it has a memory footprint so that if you send it to Sony, they can see exactly what you tried to do and deny you a waranty replacement. That will suck for some people.

yuo can probably put money on it this is for the future firmware due to the serious lack atm and they just slap version 3.0 on it just to totaly screw you but it don;t really matter to much becasue its only a matter of time before someone finds a way round it. like someone said elsewhere (dunno who) we still have many other ways to hack a PSP like the good old MP3 format i;m sure someone could find a hole in that...
