www.comet.co.uk

Ordered mine from their 3 days after the launch (When EVERYWHERE was sold out) and received it next day Very Happy

£200 for The PSP Value Pack with 2 Games (Toca Race Driver 2 (worth £35) and Spiderman 2 (worth £35))



---EDIT--

Damn, They have removed that deal now and just have a 3 Games for £250 which is a Rip off seen as I only Paid £200 and got 2 games from them just 1 month ago!! Sad

you'll have no probs with that site www.ceramicPSP.com

on another forum i know alot of people have used them with no troubles, and even better they flash it for you so you got no worries about messing it up yourself, just remember to get a 1 gig mem card also!

But also remember that now sony know about the exploit and are releasing firmware 2.01 or something then newer brought games WILL NOT WORK at present if they have this update UNTIL the people who made the UMD Emulator v0.8 Fastloader update it (if they can) or the WabVersionChanger to include these new update, because at present this two apps will allow you to play any orginal game upto V2.0 firmware only.

same, as like I thought up before and posted in another thread, They will probably have started pressing the game onto UMD now (Or will be soon) as the release date is comming up and that new Firmware isnt even out yet.

Well , Ive just ordered one from play.com instead (because its cheaper , and i was having a few problems with ceramicPSP because of the bank payments and things)

Anyway..
HOPEFULLY i won't get a 2.01? (Since thats only in japan.. i think Confused) what are the chances of me getting a 2.01 by the way?

i d say 0 chances, there are hunderds of thousands of ceramic psp in asia, all of them are 2.0, there are also millions of black psp in european stores that has 1.52, we wont miss those before a long time, i think it ll take a lot longer than 1.5


Im not fluent in english, sorry..

VERY Low Im guessing...

I think at the Most you will be given a Demo Disc with the 2.01 Firmware on and told to upgrade from 1.52 to 2.01 but Dont... Upgrade to 2.00 instead and then have fun on that and then downgrade to 1.50 when your 1gig card arrives (Thats what Im doing Smile )

Impossible in my eyes, not even sony have the resources to recall machines and re-flash them with new firmware. I doubt you will see the update on the demo disks for at least a month or so Smile

Plus it will be VERY time consuming for Sony... How long does it take to flash?? about 1 - 2 mins... Doing that to Thousands of PSP's will take forever.. Easier and faster to put the new firmware on the machines in production now.. Smile

Finally devilered today Very Happy , And low and behold... Version 1.52 Very Happy

But , I THINK the 'demo' disc comes with a Version 2.01 update (ill check it out later)
I'll downgrade it later on just now i'm leaving it to charge

If anyone will be so kind to post a link to a version 2.00 updater , That would be most helpful Razz

Check out pspupdates.com's downloads.

I just received my PSP two days ago, with 1.52 Firmware. Demo disc contained 2.00 firmware. Upgraded to 2.00, and then downgraded to 1.50 to enable execution of homebrewed code. Now I'm just waiting on my 1gb memorystick.
