New PSP Firmware with Built-In Web Browser 299
Volksport writes "Sony has released a new major firmware update for the PSP, bringing it to v2.00 (This link points to the install file). This new version offers updates such as a built-in web browser (User agent says it is Mozilla/4.0) and Korean language support. Although it was only released in Japan so far, it installs normally on US PSP systems." This version apparently breaks all hacks so far too.

Hmmm... knowing the rapid pace of hackers versus the Slashdot editors, which will come first: the hack to get the latest firmware to work, or the dupe of this story?

Well, it was also released only in Japan, and in addition to the browser breaking the hacks, it has Korean language support. I'll bet someone will come up with a Firefox plugin to detect (or even auto-hide) the Slashdot duplicates. You'd probably have to be a really antisocial guy to spend your time porting that sort of thing to PSP firmware. You'd have to be someone very ronery. Which is to say that in Soviet North Korea, only old people's hacks break the browser.

PSP sucks. Get a good American brand like Nintendo instead.

Whether 'tis nobler in the PSP to suffer
The browsers and patches of outrageous Sony,
Or to take mods against a sea of PSPs,
And by opposing hack them? To crash: to turn off;
No more; and by turning off to say we end
The video-game and the thousand electric shocks
That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To hibernate, to sleep;
To sleep: perchance to DreamWeaver...
