Nope that didn’t take long at all. I woke up this morning to the news that the White-Hats have sorted out a downgrader for the PSP Firmware 3.03. So the route for EVERY PSP on the planet is to upgrade to 3.03, and then run the downdgrader to take you back to firmware 1.5 for your homebrew (and then jump forward with the Dark Alex open firmware 3.03 OE-C).
To discuss this little victory (little? lets try a bit more than that) I invited Jake De Tommaso (from PSP Updates) onto the show to discuss why firmware 1.5 is important, how to update your PSP, why Sony are so against the PSP being open (when the PS3 lets you install Linux!) and what lessons the XBox and XNA program could teach Sony.

-I also recommend IF you have enough memory, to rip your own UMDs and play them from the memorystick, because loading times are then alot faster.

Another awesome podcast! Downgrading was fairly easy, with a few brown trouser moments when it flashs and turns itself off! Sony need to hire Dark_Alex to make sure that they can do things that we actually want, and you know what they say, if you can’t beat them, join them! Look forward to the next show!

-Fileassistant
-GPSP 0.9
-Universal Remote (you need version 1.0 and the new one)
-Rip your own UMD’s and put them on your Memorystick, the loading is way faster.

What happens when the model number PSP-1001 for a brand new PSP is not an option on the Sony PSP Official Website to sign up for the downloads? I called for help but received none. What can I do to become a new member to the Sony world of downloads?
