PSP Slim predictions for Mapthis

**Codaz** · September 6th, 2007, 00:51

Now that the beast PSP Slim is released from it's cage, the hacking games begin. Who can run homebrew/unsigned code on it first ?

What will this do for Mapthis development ?

Imagine:

-64 mb memory is double of the size of the psp so even more POI's can be loaded.

-Mp3 music on background of you driving pleasure, now that more mem is available.

-Video out hack to an external in-car monitor (in the dash or in the head rest monitor of the car). The psp can be in your dash with only a small cable coming out.

-Much longer driving pleasure with PSP-280 (2200 mah battery) in the new PSP slim which is more economical with batterylife !

-Faster loading speeds of Maps.

What do you guys think ?

PSP slim hacking would be cool, but there would have to be a completely redesigned custom firmware to support homebrew because of the sony 3.6 update that the psp slims are coming pre installed with.

I see only one problem.
It's too SLIM for 3D so only 2D will be available.

I have no problems running psp-290 version of Mapthis with mp3 plugin.. well the only problem is that psp's speakers are too tiny for good rich sound...

Deniska, i've been trying to get the MP3-plugin working, is it possible that you can explain how to do to get it working. What plugin do you use and so on...

If anyone got the time, please!
