Sony have had a bit of a bad week around the world as far as PR goes. Firstly they yet again shit on Europe with a crappy March PS3 release, yes Europe may not sell as many as USA and Japan but its still a mega market and all they have done is give the Ebay sharks another reason to charge silly prices for PS3 Consoles this Xmas.
Secondly the delaying of GTA Vice City Stories and the unknown release date of Gran Tourismo PSP, 2 more slaps in Sony Console fans faces.
Now it seems that Sony has turned its attention to the companies who release games on its systems.
A few weeks ago i posted that the PSP Connect site was linking to a homebrew site, that in itself is a very strange move for Sony as the site in question hosts Firmware files (remember Sony took the likes of Lik Sang to court for the same reason) and also the Devhook ISO Loader which obviously has a massive effect on the sales of Commercial games if warezing is being done on such a grand scale.
Now its like Microsoft carrying an advert to Linux on its pages, or Nintendo promoting Sony, these things just dont happen. But Sony basically promoting the warezing of its own console and the exploitation of its own firmware and the hacking of the console.
When contacted the rep from Sony gave no reply.
Now as a Homebrew Network we would be ecstatic to see the likes of Sony and Nintendo and Microsoft actually let all their consoles be open to homebrew in the forms we would like to see. But something tells me that it aint going to happen. 
Now will Sony get a backlash from the game companies they need to keep the PSP as a commercial console alive ?
I suppose the question is, will we ever see homebrew allowed by on a major games console bar the likes of GP2X. ?

Cools has updated the email and sms app for the PSP, heres the details:
Well thanks to yoyomacy there is now text to phone support in PSP eMail and SMS. It works pretty good, while I was testing it had connected to a cell phone and home phone multiple times. With this update there should be more stability with emails and sms's. You will need a wifi capable lua player to run this. If anyone has any idea or anything to make this a better homebrew just send a pm. Still no "\n" support, going to contact Sg57 to see if he ever got it working...

4. Allow removal of startup splash screen (configurable under iR Configurator).
5. nethostfs server v1.5 is enhanced to allow read only access. This means you can open your PC server to the public without worrying files being deleted. Refer to the user guide for details.
6. File Manager has been enhanced to support mulitple files/directories selections similar to MP3. You can use CIRCLE key to hightlight multiple files or directories and then perform file manipulation on them. You can highlight maximum of 10 files or directories. The mulitple selection will only work under DIR & RDF View. It won't work for APP & SAV views.
7. The location of each view (DIR, APP, RDF & SAV) will be remembered after toggle. Example, switching from DIR View to APP View and back to DIR View. The directory & cursor location will return to its original location before you left. Pls note MP3 Shortcut & DIR Shortcut are also classified as DIR View.
Special thanks to:
- Terdinglage, Numeror & Xoassis for making menu skins for iR Shell.
- Numeror for designing new HELP image files.

Heres an excerpt:
Few games since the PSP launched have satiated the cravings of first-person shooter fans. To top that, none has really earned the kind of praise common on PC, and to a lesser extent, consoles. Part of the reason has to do with controls. Specifically, the system's lone analog stick makes things difficult in the middle of a hectic firefight. One game in particular, Coded Arms, made the best of it by offering you customizable controls and auto-aim functionality. But that seems like a long time ago and no other game has come by to challange it.
In steps Medal of Honor: Heroes, the first game in the venerable series to debut on the PSP. A pair of IGN staffers went down to the EA offices in Redwood Shores to check it out. And although the demo only lasted about a half hour, it's abundantly clear EA has made the first-person shooter to beat on the system. It does just about everything you want a portable shooter to do, and so far, it seems to do it well. Beyond that, EA made Heroes look and feel like a game in the Medal of Honor series, as opposed to a faceless shooter set during World War II.

Ubisoft announced today that Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas will fight on the PlayStation Portable, alongside previously announced versions for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Rather than duplicate its console counterparts, the PSP version of the tactical FPS will follow a parallel story, offering both single-player and multiplayer action.
In the portable Vegas, players will switch between field operative Brian Armstrong and sniping expert Shawn Rivers. Both operatives are supporting fellow Rainbow members Keller, Park and Walter -- the stars of the console version -- in saving Las Vegas from terrorist destruction.
To support players in their counter-terrorist action, Rainbow Six Vegas offers PSP-specific controls, high-tech equipment (such as snake cams for "tagging" terrorists prior to entering a room), and a third-person view when taking cover. Building stats will unlock bonus content, including Terrorist Hunt Mode, where players begin from different points on single-player maps and hunt terrorists one at a time.
In addition to single-player action, Rainbow Six Vegas for the PSP will support multiplayer fights via wireless or Internet connections. Players can compete in Survival and Team Survival modes on six "classic" Rainbow Six maps.
The PSP edition of Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas is in development at Ubisoft's Quebec City studio, and is slated for release this holiday season.

Unless the endless waiting made you give in to the lure of an imported version of Square Enix’s latest masterpiece, get ready to give Kingdom Hearts II a Royal European welcome at the end of this month.
The critically acclaimed action RPG from legendary director and character designer Tetsuya Nomura, which blends classic Disney characters and worlds with those of other Square Enix series such as Final Fantasy, will be available on PlayStation 2 from September 29. The game was first released in Japan last December and in the U.S. earlier this year.
Continuing the high standard set by the original game and Chain of Memories on the GBA, this sequel also introduces new characters, all designed by Nomura (best known for his Final Fantasy VII, VIII and X-2 work), as Sora, Donald Duck and Goofy head off on a second dramatic quest. There are even Pirates of the Caribbean-set levels to explore, which are fortunately nothing like those found in the official tie-in to Dead Man’s Chest.

Sure, it's easy for us here in the States to throw in our two cents on Sony's recently announced PS3 delay, but it's mainly an academic pursuit -- a quick chance to feign some empathy for our brethren across the ocean. For a more meaningful reaction to the delay, you have to go to the people that are directly affected -- the foreigners that will have to do without the system for an extra few months.
With that in mind, here's a quick round-up of some of the more noteworthy and memorable quotes from foreign press, bloggers and retailers in reaction to the delay announcement..
"All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put this disastrous mess of broken egg back together again" -Rob Fahey, EuroGamer
"In a few years' time, this might look like the beginning of the end ... unless they can come up with something remarkable to stop the rot." -Bobbie Johnson, Guardian Unlimited
"This is pretty disappointing news for PlayStation fans as well as for retailers, who have been gearing up for this launch for some time now." -British retailer HMV, quoted in a Scotsman.com article
"We were never anticipating a substantial amount of PS3 in 2006. We expect to see some mitigation of profit impact with a strong line-up of other products now in free supply." -Sources close to British retailer Game, quoted in a Times Online article
"Sony Europe said when they first announced the PS3 simultaneous world wide launch 'This is an exciting first for Europe, and is a huge endorsement and vote of confidence in the strength of the European market and its importance globally,' so with them now going back on this promise we can assume that they assume Europe to be 3rd rate, behind Japan & USA" -UK Technology blog Tech's Message
"Sony have got a lot to lose from having the PS3 delayed: not just poor figures for 2006, but also a loss in market share as parents buy their kids XBoxes for Christmas, and a boost for HD-DVD which looks set to get to market far quicker than its arch-rival." -UK blogger Chris Doidge
"The previously announced PlayStation 3 shipment forecast of 6 million units globally within the fiscal year ending 2007 is not changed, suggesting that Sony wasn't expecting to sell any units in the PAL territories." -UK tech site Pocket Lint
"Can anyone else hear a lone church bell clanging mournfully in the background...?" -Yahoo Video Games UK

I had no idea this thing even existed - maybe you did. But even so, this ebay auction (the seller had better thank me, it only had 130 views before I linked it) has some great, absolutely humongous pictures of the unit from multiple angles. It's a mini CD-I with a screen (Sony had a part in the system's creation, after all), controller port, and really odd controls on the top of the lid. Definitely a cool piece of history (fullly named, the Sony Portable CD-I IVO-V11 Intelligent Discman), and one you likely won't see again for some time. Hope somebody saves those pictures somewhere!
Now if only Sony would make a PSP Version with Bigger screen etc ??

Companies try to come up with clever names to disguise what their lowly products truly are, so it's with great joy that we present the GameExpert Portable Home Theater for the PSP. Misleading name aside, the Portable Home Theater is little more than a dock with built-in speakers and a tiny subwoofer. It does, however, have that neat-o blue color effect thing feature.
The Portable Home Theater promises "hi-fi quality sound" and has two headphone jacks for dual silent listening. There's also the always appreciated line-in jack for connecting other external, non-PSP audio devices.
GameExpert's Portable Home Theater, available in black and white, is out now for around $75. But, hey, that blue effect is worth a few extra coins, right?
