The latest buzz this morning is the news from Sony about a 2.0 firmware. It's been confirmed and with a release date of July 27th. It suppose to include support for WPA, a built in web browser (no more wipeout pure hacks), the ability to swap photos with other PSPs and tons of other new features. This is gonna be a major blow to the homebrew scene because because most people will upgrade to grab the browser. We'll be posting more homebrew during the next few weeks as a last hurrah!!!
