Commercial PSP Home Control Product

So it looks like someone finally decided to market my idea.

A company called SkipJam who makes these little media centers is building a webpage into their unit that is formatted for a PSP.

Check out an article on them here:

Funny how the screenshot shows a mouse pointer. Does the PSP browser have a mouse?

Those of you who have visited this page before may remember my PSP Home Control 1.0 Project that I did back in April.

I don't want to make any promises, but since then I have made several improvements to my Home Control System and I'm hoping to share some more pics and video with everyone soon. I promise you it is much crazier than anything that skipjam is doing. Stay tuned.

PSP 2.0 Downgrader

Sweet! Congrats to all of the 2.0 users out there. Welcome to the wonderful world of PSP homebrew! For all of the related files pspupdates.com usually keeps a nice database of goodies in their file section.

I'm curious if there are any side effects to dong this. I wanted to try upgrading to 2.0 so I can use the browser, then downgrade back to 1.5. I'm sure in a few more weeks they will have diffed the two firmwares, and 2.0 psp's will be fully hacked- no downgrade required. Time will tell.

I am simply amazed at the amount of combined knowledge that has gone into bringing this little machine this far, with no dev kits or documentation. Much respect to MPH and the others involved in making this happen.

Remember kids, it's all about the homebrew. Don't do bad things with the knowledge you gain in the dark corners of the internet.
