    PSP: Web Browser and Mpeg 4 in next update

    Sony said Thursday that a software update for the PlayStation Portable next week would add the capability to surf the Web and watch video clips. The Web browser will be HTML 4.01-compatible and will be able to display most Websites.

          You won't be able to use it if your work doesn't have a wireless network. It will work and any wireless cafe or those setups they have at airports etc.

            Very nice! Although I'm not sure how useful it will be. But cool nonetheless.

                  Does anyone have a download of it? IGN had one posted, but yanked it off when Sony sent their memo telling us to wait for the US version....

                  Thanks

                      What did Sony's memo say? Why did they say wait for the US version? Is there any difference?

                        I found this about the Japanese v2.0 firmware update.

                        CAUTION: This update is only for customers who obtained PSP (PlayStation Portable) for Japan which model number is PSP-1000 or PSP-1000 K. Upon completion of preparing, we will announce update information for the other countries/areas customers via SCE Group Web Site or other channels . For theses customers who obtained PSP in the other countries/areas, please DO NOT update PSP through this web site.
                        I got some info on it from here

                        It also says that the update helps protect it from hackers on the PSP. Since I don't do that, it doesn't bother me at all. And having a web browser as small as the PSP would be nice to have. Hopefully this update comes out soon.

                          There are benefits to NOT updating your firmware however...

                              Just as long as you don't tell anybody you're in there while you're posting on OS, it'll be cool.
