Okay, i'm sure that all of you are wondering why i'm so gung-ho about the PSP. The PSP is a portable gaming machine and iPod Video in one. They both can play music, videos, view pictures. That's all gravy baby but the real reason why i'm so infatuated with the PSP is because it can be hacked to play homebrew.
Homebrew are applications that people have made and is open sourced. It's like Linux. People have made countless homebrew applications ranging from being a universal remote control to playing emulators and roms. You can back up your games that you legally own and play it straight from the memory card(which cuts load time by a lot). Sony is constantly trying to advert hackers and software pirates away from stealing and running games off the memory card. Sony releases a new software upgrade from time to time which deters hackers but the hackers always end up finding a way. I believe that this is one of the reasons the PSP Slim has been made. As of yet, the PSP Slim remains hack-free....but i suspect not for long.
EDIT: Slim has been hacked !!
