There’s not a lot of content in this video of PSP firmware v5.0 but you can expect to see the PSN store, a new RSS reader, and a snapshot tool for taking screenshots of games. Pretty exciting, right? More importantly, a firmware upgrade will ensure that PSP hackers will have to spend a few minutes hacking this version of the software and then go back to drinking Mountain Dew and eating Gamer Grub.
Is the PSP even relevant anymore? UMD is pretty much a dead-end for media and the games have been bad to abysmal so far - even God of War wasn’t that hot. Could the DSi pound the final nail in the PSP coffin?

So basically this firmware adds features that my custom firmware had given my PSP for years now, great.
And yes, the PSP is relevant, believe it or not there are quite a lot of good exclusives on the system, the DS is just a hell of a lot more popular.

Is the PSP relevant? Depends on whether you’ve hacked yours or not.
