Hardhat has posted an update to his PSPFlash Card app for the PSP, heres the release info:
Here is the long overdue update to my PSP Flash-Card program. It is designed for students to memorize all of the "important" facts that we all need to know to pass tests.
Use this to make studying easier for subjects like history.
For this version, there are two updates to improve usability.
- First there is a new Definition mode, that allows you to see the definition and guess the terms that they define.
- Second there is a new "batch mode" that shows the cards in groups of 5, so that the hard to remember terms are repeated more often when you get them wrong. This version uses a "replenishing" system, where there is a deck of waiting cards that fills the batch all the time. That way you'll see the trouble cards at least ones every batch size.
As always, it is open source, with the source code included for you to modify.
The two new functions are controlled with the L and R trigger buttons.
This version is still skinnable, so have fun and go wild.

In response to consumer demand, Warner Bros. Entertainment will release its high-definition DVD titles exclusively in the Blu-ray disc format beginning later this year, it was announced today by Barry Meyer, Chairman & CEO, Warner Bros. and Kevin Tsujihara, President, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group.
"Warner Bros.' move to exclusively release in the Blu-ray disc format is a strategic decision focused on the long term and the most direct way to give consumers what they want," said Meyer. "The window of opportunity for high-definition DVD could be missed if format confusion continues to linger. We believe that exclusively distributing in Blu-ray will further the potential for mass market success and ultimately benefit retailers, producers, and most importantly, consumers."
Warner Home Video will continue to release its titles in standard DVD format and Blu-ray. After a short window following their standard DVD and Blu-ray releases, all new titles will continue to be released in HD DVD until the end of May 2008.
"Warner Bros. has produced in both high-definition formats in an effort to provide consumer choice, foster mainstream adoption and drive down hardware prices," said Jeff Bewkes, President and Chief Executive Officer, Time Warner Inc., the parent company of Warner Bros. Entertainment. "Today's decision by Warner Bros. to distribute in a single format comes at the right time and is the best decision both for consumers and Time Warner."
"A two-format landscape has led to consumer confusion and indifference toward high definition, which has kept the technology from reaching mass adoption and becoming the important revenue stream that it can be for the industry," said Tsujihara. "Consumers have clearly chosen Blu-ray, and we believe that recognizing this preference is the right step in making this great home entertainment experience accessible to the widest possible audience. Warner Bros. has worked very closely with the Toshiba Corporation in promoting high definition media and we have enormous respect for their efforts. We look forward to working with them on other projects in the future.

ony's great white hope - the quite wonderful looking LittleBigPlanet - looks nearer to finding its way into our homes, with Sony insiders confirming they are working to get the game out in the UK for this September.
The game - which was unveiled to universal applause at last year's Games Developer Conference - is currently being developed by British company Media Molecule. It is one of the highest profile exponents of a new generation of games placing an emphasis on creativity, giving players a blank canvas to explore co-operatively and making full use of the PlayStation Network to deliver patches and user generated content. It's continued to impress at subsequent outings at E3 and the Tokyo Game Show, and if it manages to realise its lofty ambitions it could well prove to be Sony's killer app.
The September release date may be a little later than many had hoped - initial mummurings suggested the first quarter of this year - but at least it gives us something to look forward to towards the end of the year. As soon as more concrete details emerge, we'll be sure to let you know.

Those of you who have imported the Xbox 360 version of Rock Band will be interested to learn that the US Official Xbox Magazine is cover-mounting a trio of exclusive add-on songs later this month.
The February 2008 issue, which goes on sale (sorry, "hits newsstands") on 15th January, includes Freezepop's "Sprøde", Bang Camaro's "Rock Rebellion" and Count Zero's "Shake", all of which can be installed to the hard disk for easy future access.
Joystiq has tracked down YouTube vids for a couple of them, and speculates that if discs can be used to stuff the hard disk with new content then Harmonix/MTV could potentially offer retail expansion discs along these lines. It certainly doesn't sound like it's outside the realms of possibility.
The game's creators have already established themselves as keen proponents of add-on content, having released over a dozen single-song downloads and several track packs on both Xbox Live and PlayStation Network since the game's late-November US launch.
For more on Rock Band, which is due out on PS3 and Xbox 360 in Europe in Q1 2008, check out our Rock Band import review.

Epic Games hopes to release a patch that will allow PC users to package their Unreal Tournament III modifications and add-on levels for use on PlayStation 3 next week.
"We've been doing some internal testing and we're hoping to expand to a wider group tomorrow or Friday," Epic vice president Mark Rein wrote on the game's official forum. "If all goes well then we should see the update released next week which is what I expect will happen."
The PC version of UT3 comes with a fully functioning game editor based on Unreal Engine 3, and while the PS3 game does not include this, the aim is to ensure compatibility with content produced on the PC.
"Obviously the process works, as we put out a few mods before Christmas and people seem to be playing them, but it is the update to the editor that we're testing."
Meanwhile, UT3 modification website www.ut3mod.com claims to have come up with a way for people to download PS3 mods for Unreal Tournament III from within their PS3 web-browser - something that until now had been thought impossible.
Official instructions for transferring mods to the PS3 involve a PC, a Memory Stick, holy water and a pentangle of salt.
For more on the PS3 version of Unreal Tournament III, check out our Unreal Tournament III PS3 import review.

It's all a bit slow on the PAL PlayStation Store this week after last week's surprise addition of The Club in demo form, with just a Folklore add-on called Fear In The Night (side-quests, new folk, new costume) and a Devil May Cry 4 trailer to get excited about, according to our diligent forum spies.
Across the pond there is depth, but a lack of excitement - Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock benefits from downloadable content launched on Xbox Live before Christmas, Rock Band gets its usual weekly update, there are some more cars for Need For Speed ProStreet (most at USD 2.49) and a demo of NFL Tour '09.
Meanwhile, the PSP Store for PC appears to be barren on both sides of the Atlantic, so unless Sony has something 11th hour in store (so to speak), you're in for a quiet weekend. Or at least one involving things you've already bought, like the excellent Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, or perhaps the under-loved Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction.

Spong posted an update to the Skype on PSP Story, heres the full article
Update: SPOnG has received the following comment from Sony: "As we've mentioned in the past, we are constantly evaluating new technology and features to add to PSP and further details will be announced shortly." Could it be? A non-confirmation confirmation? Sure looks that way to SPOnG. Keep your eyes here for the further details as and when they're announced.
Sony looks set to announce the introduction of Internet-based telephony service Skype to the PSP at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas - starting on January 7th.
Details of just how the Voice over Internet Protocol service (VoIP) will be used with the PSP remain scarce. The news comes from a product listing for the PSP over on Sony's CES website. Innocuously placed at the bottom of the description we are informed that PSP owners will be able to, "Call friends, talk trash to fellow gamers or catch up with acquaintances via Skype for PSP system."
Sony has already announced the Go!Messenger service for the PSP in European territories, which will - in conjunction with BT in the UK - enable gamers to make video calls, voice calls and send instant messages wherever they've got a wi-fi connection. The service will operate in conjunction with local phone providers in different European countries. Given that, it looks unlikely that the service will be aimed at us.
Because the information appears on a website for an American electronics show, the US is a pretty good bet for where the service will be rolled out. Sony is unlikely to announce a VoIP service for the US which is inferior to its European counterpart, so the Skype service is likely to have similar features to Go!Messenger. That said, US gamers are still waiting for the Go!Cam - which will be needed to enable video calls - to see release.

While some developers have been critical of PS3's complex architecture (yes, Gabe Newell from Valve, we're pointing at you) many more are praising the power and potential of the machine.
"The amount of action we're able to put on the screen at 60 frames per second dwarfs what we were able to do a year ago at 30 frames per second," claims Insomniac's (Resistance, Ratchet) Chief Creative Officer Brian Hastings, "What's most exciting is I think we'll see just as big a leap from our second generation engine to our third as we did from first to second."
Fallout 3's Executive Producer Todd Howard - from Oblivion developer Bethesda - understands that PS3 "has more than enough power. No single game is using it all yet - not even close". Back at E3 in July ‘07, Mercenaries 2 Lead Designer Scott Warner claimed their game was only using 30% of PS3's power - while EA's Chief Visual Officer Glenn Entis claimed their launch games like Fight Night 3 only tapped 20%. The figures sound hokum, but it wasn't until five years into PS2's life cycle that games tapped even 90% of its power - a statistic measured by Sony's Performance Analyser tools, yet to be released on PS3.

Heres a story about a Burglar pinching a PSP and getting caught, rather embarassing for her 
A dozy serial burglar was caught after leaving a trail of Corn Flakes from the scene of her crime.
Amber McCarthy, 31, broke into a flower shop, forced the till open and stole cash.
When the owners arrived to prepare floral displays at the shop next to the Cooden Beach Hotel in Bexhill they found Corn Flakes and blooms scattered outside.
advertisement
Rachel Beckett, prosecuting at Hove Crown Court, said: "The owners noticed a trail of Corn Flakes outside the shop and called the police.
"The trail led from the flower shop to Room 118 at the hotel.
"When they searched the room police found items taken from the shop."
The Corn Flakes were found at 4am on June 15 last year.
McCarthy, of Cavendish Place, Eastbourne, was arrested.
Just days earlier she had climbed through the open window of a house in Swallowfield Road, Eastbourne, while the owner was out.
She stole a Sony PSP games console, a digital camera and other equipment worth more than £700.
Miss Beckett said McCarthy later sold the camera and console for just £30.
She was caught after a fingerprint found on the open window matched her police records.
McCarthy admitted the burglaries and asked for two similar offences in June to be taken into consideration.
The court heard she also has two previous convictions for burglaries in 2001 and 2002.
New laws meant she could have faced a minimum three year jail sentence for a third similar offence.
Isobella Forshall, defending, said McCarthy had been addicted to drugs.
She had left her "chaotic lifestyle" in London and moved to Eastbourne to try to start a new life.
Miss Forshall said: "She has been in prison for six months since her arrest.
"She has availed herself of the facilities there to address her problems and has made considerable progress.
"This was a lapse into her previous drug use. It would be unjust to impose a minimum three year sentence."
Judge David Rennie said McCarthy had chosen to put her own needs first.
He said: "No matter what your problems they were not the problems of the householders whose homes you chose to invade.
"Three more people have had the upset of knowing that somebody else has been sniffing around inside their homes and stealing their property.
"You justifiably face a sentence of at least three years."
However, he said McCarthy had already served the equivalent of a 12-month prison sentence since her arrest in June.
He said he was also impressed by the progress McCarthy had made in trying to beat her drug addiction.
Judge Rennie added: "This creates a good platform from which you can build a drug-free and crime-free future.
"If that happens you win and, much more importantly, the community which you have harmed by your activities in the past also wins."
McCarthy was given a three-year supervised community order.
She must also complete a nine-month drug rehabilitation order and take part in a substance misuse programme.

Still not convinced Burnout Paradise was "THE best demo released" last year? Criterion has rubbed some grease on frontman Alex Ward's heaping helping of self-praise by doubling the maximum number of online players (from 4 to 8) and adding 13 new Freeburn Challenges. So does this mean that Burnout is now the best demo of 2008? Quick! Somebody give these guys an award!
(Note: The multiplayer boost will take effect on servers between today and Jan. 14th. The demo is available on PSN and Xbox Live.)

Mathieulh has let slip some more news on the status on custom firmware 3.80 M33
Heres the translated info:
MathieuLH has clarified an important and essential part of the policy of M33: quality first. It therefore through this little sentence that precipitation is no room for complacency and that the 3.80 M33 released once completed and functioning at 100%.
To date, 3.80 M33 already exists and boot perfectly. It allows running all homebrews in User mode and it is already good news. So what remains to be done?
Dark_Alex works currently on the NIDs Resolver allowing the launch of homebrews in Kernel mode and also to use, in theory, all the plug-ins present without modifications. This party is so much work and so time.
So take your bad to let patience and time to time. You know now that the 3.80 M33 is well advanced but the need to allow the artist to work ...
So for any non french people it means that 3.80 M33 firmware is already up and running and they are just ironing out bugs
