Personally, I stopped upgrading my PSP’s firmware when Dark Alex left the scene a few months ago. Firmware 3.41 or thereabouts. The little guy does all I need it to do. Sony today, however, dropped version 3.70. The upgrade adds only a few new features (if you can call them features), including
• Custom themes (You could do this with hacked firmware for a while now)
• Sequential playback of movies
By far, the biggest addition is…
• The ability to play music and view photos at the same time. That it took until version 3.70 to be able to do such a processor intensive task is amazing. Like, I’m sitting here stunned. And on a crazy coffee buzz, but stunned nonetheless.
You know where to find the update, I trust.

No one will read this post, as no one gives a flying fuck about psp anymore – particularly, as you said, after Dark Alex decided to wander away from it.
However…
Coffee Buzzes rock my world – particularly in the pants.
Except instant coffee…
Which is distinctly lacking in its pants region rocking qualities.
Probably because it causes erectile problems.
I like tostitos and I’m not dead yet. I also love my PSP and I can’t wait to get the new slim one.
I will wait until the custom firmware is updated with these features.
this upgrade was probably in response to M33’s release of version 3.6 which can be used for the PSP slim. (long live homebrew) as much as i loved Dark Alex’s work…with his retirement it seems there have been quite a few people stepping up to the plate when it comes to creating new custom firmwares and other programs
