Recommended Posts

Ahg! I bought my psp today and found FIVE deadpixels (only visible on black screen) and a piece of dust under the screen that is visible always?:no::

get an extended warranty and return it in 8 months! :yes::

perhaps then, the lcds will be fixed.

Does anyone know what the terms and conditions of the EB Games extended warranty is? Also, is the receipt that says I bought the warranty enough to make a claim, or was there some other paper that they also gave me that I lost (I can't remember)? The only thing the guy at the counter told me was they won't accept it if the screen is cracked.

EB has a pretty good warranty policy, you can pretty much return it in any condition and they'll exchange it for a new one.

The PRP will let you replace it for about anything, but the PRP becomes invalid after they replace it. I was reading over my PRP and although I don't remember the exact text is was something like ...EB has completed its end of the PRP when the repairs made to the product are equal to the purchase price of the product or an equal or greater priced replacement has been issued...

the guy at my eb said a cracked/scratched/pixels/anything screen is fine, as long as the unit is in one piece.

Got a PSP today on a whim. I know its been said countless times but yeah this thing is a fingerprint/dust magnet. I'm a bit mad about not having a usb cable or memory stick duo card reader (just standard memory stick) so I can't really do a lot of the things I really wanted to try out till I can go down to radio shack or someplace. They really should have included one in the "value" pack.

Definite fingerprint magnet, but that cleaning cloth works wonders.

This has probally been covered before but do the SanDisk Memory Stick Pro Duo cards work with the PSP? I know they have special colored ones for "Gaming" but do the normal blue ones work with the PSP? No one has the Gaming ones in stock and SanDisk offers a 2GB normal card :devil:

who has the 2gb pro duo in stock?

When using the PRP, do you need to have EVERYTHING the value pack came with or can you just bring in the PSP alone and get a brand new one?

I didn't find anything in my PRP about that, so who knows. I'm going to try and exchange mine before thursday (14 days) and not use the PRP (hopefully I can keep spiderman 2, took off the little sticker on the box so maybe they won't notice).

Sony should really add a few specific features to the next firmware, mainly the ability to change backgrounds to whatever you'd like, and the ability to just pop in a UMD and browse only the music on that game, cause there are a few good tracks in Lumines that would be even better if you didn't have to play the game just to hear them.

I have it, but I've been wondering... how many tracks are there really in Lumines?  The credits only show the 4 "proper" tracks as I've heard them, but there are obviously more.

Yeah, they only seem to put the names in for the Mondo Grosso tracks, but the one I like is the track that goes with the "Roundabout" skin.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.

    • Interesting. I'm not using a VPN with my phone. I tried though my home internet (Rogers) and my cellular internet (Telus) using their respective DNS servers and both trigger the dialog above.
