    What they are calling a battery sounds like a self powered eeprom flasher that contains the IPL microcode necessary to flash the psp eeprom with a special recovery firmware.

    Why couldn't the same thing be accomplished with a Devolution chip?

    It could, people just aren't smart enough to install it.

    Smart probably doesn't have a lot to do with it.
    More like steady hands, skill and the right equipment.

    What makes this "battery" any less difficult to use.
    Why couldn't a chip like the devolution be adapted to use the same technique especially *if* its easier to use...
    ie less install points, sanding and so on.

    This battery I presume holds kernel access to the firmware. Thus launching the prx's in the file which then must launch the PSAR file and flashes the firmware to whatever the PSAR update is

    I see... the devolution does not contain any Sony IPL
    Which is what makes it "legal"
    So less solder/contact points I assume...
