Ok heres a pic now tell me whats wrong after looking at it:
Yep over at SuccessHK they by the looks of that sign are posting that v1.52 firmware PSPs can run homebrew, well that is of course wrong, you can upgrade to a version 2.0 firmware and either stay as it is or downgrade to v1.5 but the v1.52 thing is wrong.
The V1.52 is selling for near on 300 dollars for the rich and homebrew starved.

After the support for my previous two versions, I have decided to release what is, in my opinion, the Ultimate PSMoz version....ULTRA! 
In this version is a new dynamically equalised audio file which has been increased in volume by 30db. This now means that the sound is semi-audible to humans at top volume.
There is now an option of two audio files, standard and ULTRA. The ULTRA file is geared up for use outdoors and for areas with lots of mosquitos.
NOTE: This audio file is only effective to female mosquitos (the ones that bite).

First PSP Modchip Announced - Undiluted Platinum!
A new modchip called Undiluted Platinum is from what rumours say will be appearing soon, it can boot either Sony or Custom Firmware and run Homebrew Code. Take as a rumour for now until its 100% confirmed.
Sony will be watching this with major legal interest if it becomes reality.
Edit by wraggster
Take all modchip rumours as fake until its confirmed real, remember a lot of sites will post suposed news as real even if its fake, photoshop can easily make nice modchip images

News from IGN
Race Driver 2006 for the PSP is revved up and ready to race as Codemasters today confirms the title has gone gold and will launch on May 30th.
Cramming in more auto sports than any other PSP system game, Race Driver 2006 comes complete with real performance cars, real damage, real physics, wireless link multiplayer for 12 gamers, and intense pack racing with up to 21 cars on-screen competing for position.
Originally released in Europe as TOCA Race Driver 2 (and based on the second console edition), Race Driver 2006 on PSP adds 10 all-new international tracks for a tarmac-melting 60+ circuits, plus over 50 machines to race. In addition to more than a dozen performance tests and racing events, the Trans-World Cup is designed specifically for gaming on the go, with a variety of event-based challenges, including Time Trials and Skill Tests rather than a series of straight races. Race Driver 2006 also includes the entire Career Mode from TOCA Race Driver 2.

Via Xlink Kai Forums
just went to the webiste of Zydas, the maker of the ZD1211 wifi chipset used in many USB Wifi adapters including the Datel Wifi MAX and noticed that new updated drivers (v 4.13) are available. I installed the new drivers and launched their config tool to see what features may have been added, I was surprised to see that there is a new option labelled "PSP Xlink Mode" , I think this enables the "promiscuous" for compatibility with Xlink Kai. Anyway, I enabled this new option, followed this tutorial and it worked !! , Please note that you can't use the same wifi card for connecting both to the psp and the internet at the same time. You've got to have another wifi/ethernet card or modem to let Xlink Kai connect through it to the internet.

Arguru has posted some info on his new game coming soon for the PSP:
decided to extend a bit more my shoot-em'up engine (used for L.A.S.T. demo), to add non-linear scroll-maps, some 2d basic physics (body), and some map/tiling AI so map-text files can be edited easier (the engine will fill corners, shadows, etc).
This is not SMM engine (super mini mario), but a new rewritten one. Some screenshots of a basic-shooter, I used Turrican ripped graphics and some others, note that following maps are up of a bunch of 'R's (wich R means rock tileset), spaces and a few characters for enemy placement.
Despite it's all software rendering, it's running nicely at 60FPS with background parallax scrolling, etc. I'll come with some release game in a couple of weeks.

Field Commander is the first military turn-based strategy game for PSP and the only title that offers engaging, challenging skill based warfare in a realistic military setting. You play as a Field Commander working for the Global Defense League, an independent organization established by the Allied Nations to defend the world against covert organizations whose goals include terrorism, genocide, and global domination. Your main enemy in these scenarios is Shadow Hold, an evil terrorist organization bent on inciting wars, illicit arms deals and global domination. Command the land, skies and sea. Orchestrate an offensive attack through 30 unique missions, each one coming alive in beautiful 3D environments with highly-detailed terrain and dynamic visual effects. With an arsenal of 15 army divisions and 11 commanding officers to choose from, the power is yours to outwit the enemy at every turn.
100 Official U.S. Playstation Magazine
Turn-based strategy doesn't get any better than this.
90 Play Magazine
If it's combat you crave, Field Commander won't disappoint.
90 TotalPlaystation
It's wonderfully balanced, nicely challenging, and things like the fog of war or stealth units are handled with plenty of confidence.
90 PSX Extreme
As a total package, Field Commander is easily one of the best turn-based strategy games ever produced. That's no surprise, since it's basically a knock-off of Nintendo's "Advance Wars."

Magik posted this news/release:
I guess the demo disc was good for something after all
The archive contains the sceMpeg lib stubs, the PMF Player module and a test app. Binaries for fw 1.5 are included as well. All the info was obtained by disassembly and sniffing with PSPLINK, but some things are still missing, like finding the resolution of the movie.
The test app will try to play a file named 'movie.pmf' from the root of the memory stick. It has no GUI but if someone wants to make one, fell free to do so.
A PMF file is actually some sort of MPEG-2 Program Stream containing AVC video and ATRAC3 audio elementary streams, yet all the MPEG-2 multiplexers I've tried seem to produce incompatible streams. Some PMF files have chapter information in their headers and some of the applications I've looked at show traces of a 'psmf' library that is used to interpret that information.

As retail bites its nails over hardware allocation, SCEE president and CEO David Reeves has revealed that the first PS3s off the production line will be PAL units.
In an exclusive interview with MCV, the Euro boss moved to reassure the industry of SCE’s newfound commitment to Europe – but admitted that some European territories may only be allocated ‘small seed’ numbers of the console for day one.
“I hope we will be day and date with US and I hope that we’ll get the same quantities as US as well,” said Reeves. “I don't think we’ll be disadvantaged. In fact I believe the first PS3s being manufactured are being made for Europe – which is a first."
“Between November 17th and December 31st we'll hope to put them in as many European territories as we can, even if we have to place small seed quantities on day one."
And Reeves also responded to the recent discussions across the market over the console’s £425 price tag:
“When Blu-Ray players come out in Europe they are probably going to be between €900 and €1,000. So €599 for a Blu-Ray player – which is what a PS3 is – and a games machines with lots of good titles coming out as well is actually a steal. And the €499 unit, because that will also play Blu-Ray, is even better value.”

A report from website GamesRadar claiming that it will be illegal to sell used games for the PS3 has been officially denied by Sony today, with a spokesperson telling our sister site, GamesIndustry.biz, that it is "false speculation."
GamesRadar yesterday reported that Sony was warning high street retailers that the sale of pre-owned games would be illegal due to the licensing terms of PS3 software, which would mean that discs technically remained the property of Sony.
However, a Sony Computer Entertainment UK spokesperson today outright denied that any such message had been conveyed to retailers - telling GI.biz that following conversations with the firm's European parent company, neither division has "any knowledge" of such a strategy.
"We have definitely not been communicating that," UK spokesperson Jennie Kong confirmed. "It's false speculation. We don't have any further knowledge about this topic - either officially or unofficially, to be frank."
It would appear that the report is based on the resurrection of a much earlier rumour in this regard, which surfaced most recently last November with claims that PS3 software would "bind" to the first machine it was played on, and would be unusable on any other system.
At the time, Sony completely debunked the rumour - telling UK newspaper The Guardian in no uncertain terms that: "PlayStation 3 software will not be copy protected to a single machine but will be playable on any PlayStation 3 console."
Speaking to us this afternoon, Kong confirmed that "there has been no official comment on this since the story that came up a few months ago - it hasn't changed since then, and we're quite surprised by why this has popped up again, to be honest."
However, this is one industry urban legend that just won't go away, it appears. Sony has been attached to various efforts to stamp out the second hand software market ever since a group of Japanese publishers failed in their efforts to have the used-software trade outlawed in that territory, but the company has consistently denied that it plans to use invasive DRM-style measures in this way.
With the firm already making massive gambles on factors such as the price point of the system and the popularity of the Blu-Ray next-gen DVD format, it's perhaps unsurprising that it's not keen on gambling on removing used games - often cited as a key factor in driving the mass-market acceptance of gaming - from the equation as well.

Hi,
Check out www.teddysoft.co.uk I've just made a new app available. It's still version one so be nice, it's just a baby!!
The app is called noSy and as the thread title suggests it's an offline web browser for the PSP. It runs on your PC and caches web content on your PSP.
It makes use of the PSP's own browser to view cached pages so firmware 2.0 is required (sorry homebrewers!!).
