[Definitive] Sony PSP Thread

hey gotta question. i could of sworn that people with the japanese ones would auto-boot to the game if it was in the drive, and they had to have the drive open when they turned it on to stop it. was this true? was this changed for the US version? cuz mine doesn't do it.

are you turning it off or putting to sleep? just flipping the switch up puts the unit to sleep, holding it up turns it off

OK, got bored with the PSP.

Wipeout game has a download option to get extra crap. But there is nothing yet.

I thought that maby its a standard web browser.

So I looked in my proxy log to find out where it was going. Got the URL.

"http://ingame.scea.com/wipeout/"

Firefox got a 500 error (forbidden). Damn....

Whats the easyest way to block something? Restrict by user_agent!

Turned on the user_agent logger in my proxy server. Got the user_agent of the PSP.

"SCEJ PSP BROWSER 0102pspNavigator"

With a Firefox plugin I changed its user_agent to that.

Web site loaded.

Wait? Its a web browser? cool.gif

Made a DNS record (I run my own lookup server).

Redirected the URL DNS to my local box.

Put in my own index.html file.

Threw hyperlinks in the file.

Im now searching on Google through the PSP!

OMFG I am SO ****ed! I try to take care of my PSP by putting it in the case that they give you and it SCRATCHES my entire system! The inside lip is a little rough and it scrapes right across the system when you put it in and left a huge scratch right across the entire screen. I know it was the case cuz the scratch goes right along with the angle you put it in the case. Im am so upset it's not even funny. So much for me protecting it :-( Worst thing is EB doesn't have any more psp's so I can't return it yet. I called Sony and they said send it in but odds are they will say I did this and all it's gonna do it waste my time.

"and now something for your viewing torture... a pic of a broken PSP"

psp.jpg

Victim:

Keroro from Osaka Prefecture

Scene of Accident:

Children's room at home

Broken Item:

Sony Playstation Portable (PSP)

Details of Accident:

I was engrossed in playing "Ridge Racer" and, despite wanting to go to the toilet, had a go at a Time Attack battle. I held on as long as I could but, as they say, you can't beat nature so I dove into the toilet and did my business as quickly as possible. On the way back to my room, the tragedy occurred.

Being in a bit of a hurry, I had just tossed the PSP on the floor at the room entrance and, being the type not to look where I'm going, squashed it fair and square with my foot (when I came back). I remember there was a cracking sound. For a while, I couldn't take in the situation and just stared blankly at the PSP.

When my dad came home, I explained what had happened and he roared with laughter. It had only been 3 days since I received the PSP as a Xmas present.

Damage Amount:

About 12,000 yen. I used my new year's gift (o-toshidama) to get it repaired. It was about 1 month until it came back.

More from the Contributor:

Only the LCD was damaged so after it was replaced and adjusted that was it. You can't just leave things lying anywhere you feel like. Also, look where you're going!

Where is that site?

ok i got a quick question bout the psp, since ive given up probability of getting an ipod mini:

1. psp is usb2 right? how long does it take to fill a 1gb memory stick duo through the psp's duo to the computer by usb2? (exact or estimate from a 512 duo you have)

sub questions:

2. what are the transfer rates of different versions of the duo, i mean theres the sandisk one, sony one, the pro, high speed? omg theres too much out there.

i just thought of another questions (extra post just incase some of you aint bothered to read the other post) ;)

how do you carry your psp around? i mean, it doesnt fit comfortably in your pocket right.

    • Just when I thought EA couldn't go lower. They surpassed my expectations
    • The GEEKOM A8 mini PC is 20% off (lower than Prime Day pricing) plus Huge Storewide Sale by Steven Parker GEEKOM is back with a deal on a variant of its A8 Mini PC powered by AMD's Ryzen 7 8945HS, which came out in 2024 with a TDP of just 45W, with a base clock of 3.8 GHz and a Turbo Boost of 4.9 GHz; although we never reviewed this variant, we did check out the Ryzen 9 version. As a reminder of what you get, below are the specifications for this Mini PC. GEEKOM A8 Dimensions 112.4 mm x 112.4 mm x 37 mm Weight 450g CPU Ryzen 7 8745HS (8 cores, 16 threads, 16MB L3 cache, 3.8 - 4.9 GHz, TDP: 45 W) cTDP: 35-54W (Default 45W) Graphics AMD Radeon™ 780M Graphics 12 RDNA 3 Graphics Cores 2700MHz 768 shading units / stream processors (12 CUs), 48 texture mapping units, and 32 ROPs NPU XDNA architecture (Up to 16 NPU TOPS) Memory 16GB Dual-channel Crucial DDR5-5600MT/s SODIMM (up to 64GB) Storage 1TB NVMe M.2 (PCIe Gen 4.0 x4) Operating System Windows 11 Pro Bluetooth Bluetooth v5.2 Wireless LAN Wi-Fi 6E Kensington Lock No SD Card reader Yes (left side) Adapter 120W, 6.32A, 19V Power Adapter Front I/O Ports 2 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A 1 x 3.5mm front stereo headset jack Rear I/O Ports 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A 1 x USB 4 Gen 3 Type-C with Power delivery up to 15W (5V 3A) 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C 1 x USB 2.0 Type-A 2 x HDMI 2.0b 1 x 2.5G RJ45 LAN 1 x DC-in Deal Price $519 (buying links below) GEEKOM has two configurations of the A8, with the only difference being the slightly less-powerful Ryzen 7 CPU with half the storage (1TB) and DDR5 memory (16GB). This knocks $350 off the price compared to the $999 Ryzen 9 configuration. In both instances, a Windows 11 Pro license is also pre-loaded. As I said previously, this appears to be an update on the A7 with the only difference being the newer CPU. The packaging has changed quite a bit from the A7. Instead of dark colors, now the box is completely white, and the foam cushion has been replaced by a cardboard mould that the A8 sits in, above a small envelope that contains a thank you card and booklet that has guidance on all of the controls, how to access the A8 to swap out the SSD or memory, and safety information in several European languages. Upon removing the cardboard mould, you can find another cardboard compartment that contains the power lead, HDMI cable, VESA plate, and a bag of screws. What’s In The Box 1 x A8 Mini PC 1 x Power Adapter 1 x HDMI Cable 1 x VESA plate and bag of screws 1 x Envelope with booklet and Thank you card Unlike the A7, the VESA mount option is back with the A8. In short, you have everything you need to get started. All products sold by GEEKOM receive a 3-year free Warranty from the date you receive the product.
