Chances are the uk release will be either 1.51, 1.52 or 2.0

sony has stopped producing 1.5 psps.
1.51 psps started to show up in stores youl know by the coding on one of the stickers it has a B instead of an A

it stops homebrew by closing the flaw that allowed homebrew to happen on 1.5 and 1.0

none.. if you buy it in Europ, you will get 1.51 or 1.52, eventually 2.00 but i dont think there s a single chance for 1.5 firmware in Europ..
Importing it from asia while you still can is the best because even when european crkrs will try to break it, even with hundreds of crkrs, it might takes month or it might be never, as most recent games need the latest firmwares to run, if they release a 2.1 very soon after the 2.0 you ll never see it cracked, neither you will see 2.1 crked so.. hopeless
you have less than a week to find 230€ and a decent online reseller with the right firmware Sad


Im not fluent in english, sorry..

What??? Im guessing its 100% possible for these crackers to crack anything given enough time... I mean people thought PSP would never have backed up games etc running but look what happened...

What version PSP's play backed up games??

OMG , Just spoke to a friend who works in a game shop , and he has been told to inform all customers who purchase a psp that they have to put the demo disc in asap ( as we know this updates the unit form 1.52 to 2.0 ) otherwise the unit doesnt function .. he also purchased one from the shop and it was 1.52 out the box , does sony know something about 1.52 that they done want us to have that firmware Question

I might not be able to use it until I do!?

And can I use the demo disc without updating it? I mean if I put the disc in, will automatically update? Are the demos playable?!
