pink psp homebrew friendly

[cal360]

I don't think it's downgradable at this time as it's probably above version 2.80 (I think she'ld appreciate any PSP)

[benn]

yo its 3.01 - they finally replied to email
i dont know whether to get her one and just leave her playing lumines 2 until i can downgrade it or buy a black 2.71 and downgrade that.
i have found a pink one in uk online store called argos that is 2.81 but that is $300! it is £160. UK is crazy prices.

[cal360]

Buy her a white one she'll probably appreciate it just as much

[benn]

i got her a pnk one from Argos. it was a great deal. £119.99 i paid and it has:
pink psp
headphones
remote
case
cord
32mb memory card
limited edition P!NK umd and content

ok so the P!NK umd is going in the bin or ebay and i will give her my old 2GB card - i love 4GB!

but the psp is 2.81. is that downgrade-able?
i know that 2.8 is.... or are they the same. i presume not.

oh and she loves it to pieces. even if she can only play lumines 2 on umd right now

UK is crazy prices.

I live in the UK and i dont think the prices are crazy

2.81 is not downgradeable

[cal360]

2.81 won't be downgradable for a while so be patient

:rofl:
wtf - xbox360 games are like £45 - that is about $90.
in usa i can get them for $50 and even less. that is about £25. you do the math.

every game and system i look at is about one third to half the price cheaper than the UK.
the PS3 is going to cost u guys £500. i can get one for $500. your price is the equivalent of $1000. damn, that is the price they were selling on ebay within an hour of launch... you guys will be paying that for months.

now dont tell me that they aint crazy prices.
the only reason i got a pink psp from argos online uk is because they are selling it cheap as it is last stock. so you get all that stuff for £120 - everywhere else you look on UK sites like Amazon etc it is £150+
i was going to buy from HK as it was only $198 but that was basic pack with no extras. for the sake of an extra $20 i have now got her everything else.:thumbup:

We dont have to pay £45 a few people know where to get them on the cheap without downloading them.

And have you ever been to the UK

[Gizmo356]

Maybe is the wifi card cause the pink psp is a TA-086 and those have different wifi card but I don't think that will affect it cause its just so it doesn't over heat.

yeah i been. this is getting off topic now so lets leave it, but fact is that if you search web and look and UK store prices and compare to USA, USA is always cheaper and mostly the difference is significant. i am not saying UK sux... just that it is an expensive place!
