The PSP2 will have support for a 3G network connection, but won't be able to make phone calls.
That's according to Nikkei (via Andriasang) who says the new console will be supported by a 3G service provided by NTT DoCoMo in Japan - the country's largest mobile carrier.
This will give the system an always-on connection for online gaming and downloading games and movies, but it will not be a phone.
It's also reported that the system will have Wireless LAN features for when the player is within reach of a zippier WiFi outlet, but the 3G will offer a more permanent internet connection - rather like iPad. The paper makes no mention of subscription fees or pricing details.
The paper also says the machine will have an OLED screen, and a new processor developed especially for the new console that will handle 'high resolution visuals'.
These details come just ahead of a reported event later this week called the 'PlayStation Meeting' where, according multiple reports, Sony is set to finally reveal the PSP2.
Exciting times.

Square Enix has revealed the "Ultimate Pack" for Final Fantasy IV Complete Collection, the PSP release of Final Fantasy IV and The After Years, coming to Japan on March 24. This Square Enix E-Store exclusive is rather lovely to look at and comes with an artbook, game guide and 17-track audio CD, called "Final Fantasy IV The After Years Sounds Plus."
Five of the tracks on the CD have yet to be decided (Square Enix is asking Japanese Square Enix Members to vote for them from a list). Even if you aren't a member, you can still listen to samples of all the tracks in the running.
Final Fantasy IV Complete Collection, and the Ultimate Pack, have not been announced for release outside of Japan.

We're only four days away from a supposed January 27th unveiling, but apparently there are still more juicy PSP2 rumors left to dole out -- Japan's often-reliable Nikkei newspaper reports that the handheld machine will sport a crisp OLED touchscreen and 3G data from NTT DoCoMo when it arrives later this year, with the latter enabling multiplayer action and even full video and game downloads over the Japanese cellular network. What's more, the paper confirms that the screen will be physically larger and powered by some potent new silicon. So, how will Sony differentiate this PSP2 from the PlayStation Phone and tempt you to buy both? The game system won't make calls.
Note: In case you're not familiar, the image above is a relatively ancient reader mockup, and likely not representative of the final product. It is pretty sexy, though.

Hermes, famous for his payload work, has released his first custom firmware (CFW) today. Unlike the other CFW's available, Hermes decided to release a CFW based off of 3.41 firmware. The firmware basically allows you to jailbreak your console on 3.41 without the need for a dongle, useful for those not planning to update to 3.55. We must stress this is still a beta release and when flashing a custom firmware there is always a chance of bricking.
Read more: PSGroove.com - Hermes CFW 3.41 Version 1.0 (BETA) Released http://psgroove.com/content.php?682-...#ixzz1Bmnlf8WG
tested IN:
CECHC04 (my model, 3 times with different changes, FAT 60GB)
CECHG04 (FAT)
CECHH04 (FAT 40GB)
CECHL04 (FAT 80 gb)
CECH2504B (slim)
CECH2404A (slim)
CECH2004A (slim)
CECH2004B (slim)
Hermes CFW 3.41 version 1.0 (BETA)
----------------------------------
WARNING! This modified firware is tested only by two persons (it is experimental!!!) with this models:
CECHC04 (my model, 3 times with different changes, FAT 60GB)
CECHG04 (FAT)
CECHH04 (FAT 40GB)
CECHL04 (FAT 80 gb)
CECH2504B (slim)
CECH2404A (slim)
CECH2004A (slim)
CECH2004B (slim)
I cannot be sure if it can brick others models (don´t use this CFW if you have buy your console with 3.50+, you can brick it!)
I am not responsible if this CFW brick you console: I have taken all possible precautions using SHA1 hash to avoid errors building the firmware, etc, and other problems (i include too my own patch utility to be sure you apply the patch correctly).
Building the firmware:
Put original PS3UPDAT.PUP (3.41 v2) with patch.bat and run patch.bat. It must create CFW341_PS3UPDAT.PUP.
Put CFW341_PS3UPDAT.PUP as PS3UPDAT.PUP in one pendrive (usb:/PS3/UPDATE/PS3UPDAT.PUP) and try toupdate normally from the device.
If it say "you have this version yet" try the restoration - recovery method (pressing POWER. Ask about this method if you don´t know in the forums)
Features:
- LV1 patch for undocumented v1_undocumented_function_114 (kudos for flukes1/graf_chokolo) 1 byte, don´t worry! XD
- LV2 peek/poke patch (original from psgroove)
- vsh.self patch to enable .self (same patch as psgroove-hermes_v4B. To launch self requires the payload working)
- nas_plugin.sprx patch to enable packages (same patch as psgroove-hermes_v4B. You can install PSL1GHT original packages but requires
geohot make_self_npdrm without one payload working)
- category_game.xml modified to enable packages (kudos for KaKaRoTo)
With this options PS3 works with Homebrew signed (use make_self_npdrm in the EBOOT.BIN).
Working:
Install payloadhv4.pkg and launch it to load the psgroove-hermes_v4B
NOTE: payload code is experimental. I need to work in the application and the payload to add news features.
don't worry about the source code now: this is a beta test version yet, but the source code will soon available.

Know what's awesome? Guns! Especially when they're capped with a glowing pastel ball. This more "realistic" alternative to the $20 Sony PS3 Move gun attachment is from Blaze and will set you back £9.99 (about $16) when it begins shipping at the end of February. Bring it to a Texas bar and we hear you'll get a complimentary Shirley Temple. Yeehaw!

Rumor has it that Sony is looking to the PC games market to help solve its growing piracy problem on the PlayStation 3 — with the introduction of serial keys to its games. According to 'a very reliable source' quoted by PS3-Sense, Sony is attempting to address the recent revelation that it failed to properly secure the private signing key for its flagship console — leading to clever tinkerers producing third-party firmware that allows unofficial software and illegitimately downloaded games to run on unmodified hardware — by looking to the PC retail market for solutions. Unlike the PS3, the PC doesn't have a hardware DRM system built in to it — despite attempts by groups like the Trusted Computing Group, formerly the Trusted Computer Platform Alliance, to introduce such a thing — relying instead on software-based DRM and a surprisingly old-fashioned guarantee of a game's uniqueness: a serial key.

News via http://www.psp-hacks.com/2011/01/20/...6-37-released/
Sony makes a move… Available now via Network Update is a new official PSP firmware version — version 6.37. Whatever you do — do not update — not yet.
What’s new? This, apparently… “This is a minor update that improves system software stability during use of some features.” Yeah, eh.
We’ll keep you posted.
Update: Mathieulh shares some insight on 6.37…
To all the people that care about kernel mode on psp, the scepower exploit is fixed in the 6.37 firmware . Avoid the update.
“Signed” usermode apps just run fine mind you. (although they fixed a couple of (now useless) usermode exploits.)
This means signed [user-mode] homebrew still works on firmware 6.37; ISO loaders and other kernel mode dependent homebrew will not … for now.

The irony in this one… Man… Sony must be pissed. From the devs talking at Wololo’s end is carlosgs with an EBOOT, this one itself is signed, that, get this — signs other [unsigned] EBOOTs! A homebrew to sign other homebrew for official firmware (OFW).
That is awesome! Cheers to everyone involved once again.
Please note: You may not be able to sign absolutely everything, but things are shaping up nicely

News via http://psx-scene.com/forums/f6/eff-c...-geohot-77266/
The Electronic Frontier Foundation, a non-profit digital rights advocacy group, has posted an article on the upcoming Sony vs. Geohot court battle.
Quote:
Sony's core arguments — that it can silence speech that reveals security flaws using the DMCA and that the mere fact of a terms of use somewhere gives a company permanent and total control over what you do with a device under pain of criminal punishment — are both sweeping and frightening, and not just for gamers and computer researchers. Frankly, it's not what we expect from any company that cares about its customers, and we bet it's not what those customers expect, either.

I haven’t been posting as much lately but here is something new I’ve been working on. I know I start too many new things but new is interesting and I assure you that I will eventually be going back and updating That Other Space Shooter, Neo Race, Cubicle Shooter, Neo Tanks and all my other stuff. I’ve actually already made a few improvements to That Other Space Shooter and I’ll probably post that sometime soon.
The Untitled Project is (or will be) a sandbox (massive and open ended streaming city) science fiction (think cyberpunk not space opera) RPG.
The setting and a few other things are different but it is in a way a spiritual successor to what The world Drowns would have been. This time around though I’m just doing all the art assets myself.
Use the left analog stick to move
right analog stick to move
X to jump
left/right on the directional pad to turn on/off a test texture
up/downt on the directional pad to increase/decrease the draw distance
The demo will occasionally freeze when loading. I know why it does this and will be correcting it soon.

George "Geohot" Hotz broke open iPhone and broke open PlayStation 3. Apple wasn't happy and Sony has taken Hotz to court.
What would Microsoft do if Hotz broke open Windows Phone 7?
Nothing.
In fact, Microsoft wants to send Hotz a Windows Phone 7 handset so he can get cracking.
"Geohot, if you want to build cool stuff on WP7, send me email and the team will give you a phone - let dev creativity flourish," tweeted Brandon Watson, Windows Phone 7 team lead.
Hotz's jailbreak for PS3 allows homebrew applications and pirated games to run on the console. Sony's trying to stop him distributing it, but Hotz is fighting The Man every step of the way.

Sony's going on tour next month with a new campaign called PlayStation Access. This allows people of the UK to try new PS3 games long before they're released in shops.
The inaugural event happens in London on Friday, 4th February, and finishes two days later on Sunday, 6th February.
From there, PlayStation Access heads to Glasgow, Scotland, where you can play from Friday, 18th February. Again, events come to a close on Sunday.
Sights include developer sessions, FIFA tournaments and Gran Turismo 5 time trials. Drive well and you could win tickets to the football creme de la creme: the Champions League final at Wembley in May.
