I'm just unhappy that IrShell hasn't been released for 3.80 M33 yet.

I don't know, I like it
The xmb works a bit faster, I have no idea why.
My backups work ok now, with the memory stick driver fix (they had a very little slowdown before)
I only regret losing my custom gameboot
Internet radio is good
And network update is the $#@! man, is so awesome being able to update my custom firmware through that
I have the 1.50 kernel addon so all my homebrew works

MCLOVIN IT. I haven't run into any of the bugs. The XMB seemed a bit slow loading the game icons in the first release, but since m33-4 I haven't seen any problems. I use a 4GB Sandisk for gaming MSPD.

I have a fat so I added the 1.50 update. I did update all of my emulators to HEN-D versions before 1.5 was released as they wouldn't play natively on 3.8. The only one that still required 1.5 was PCEP (though it's supposed to work).

I also installed some new plugins like custom fimware extender 1.9.2 and popsloder, though I have run all my installed PSX games on 3.80 pops successfully. (including R-type Delta, Vagrant Story, FFIX, Um Jammer Lammy, Strider2)

I thought I would enjoy internet radio, but so far not impressed. Maybe it's better in -4 update?

I don't use the PSP for much other than emulation and native PSP games, so maybe all you folks having trouble is because you hacked the $#@! out of your kernel? Stuff like custom themes and IR shell will likely need to be updated. I don't have any homebrew installed to speak of just emulators.

It's the best custom firmware ever, hands down, since early bugs have already been fixed. I have difficulty comprehending it becoming any better than it is now.

The only justified reason some people may want to wait is for IRshell, a few plugins, and some other odd programs to be updated for compatibility.

No one is bitching. We asked what your opinions were on the new firmware and people that answered negatively have contributed just as much as those that answered positively. If people think something sucks, we want to know why it sucks and what they would rather see. We wont ban people for sharing opinions as long as they arnt rude about it.
