I'm aware this isn't Xbox related, but I can't see anywhere more appropriate.

Just a small request to the Xecuter team. If you guys _are_ in fact able to crack the encryption in the PSP firmware for the 1.5x, or indeed the upcoming 1.6x series - please don't release it until after the Euro launch, otherwise Sony will just do what they did with every other update and fix published security flaws in a new firmware, and the rest of the world that gets their PSPs after September 1 still won't be able to use homebrew apps (which is the only reason I want one of the things - I'd import one but I don't want to risk not being able to return it overseas if there's problems with it). They'll obviously catch up with anything that might be released at this time, so mid-September it'll be broken again, but hopefully that'll be time enough for everyone to have their hands on a portable MAME emulator etc.


Of course... if you come up with an actual modchip, then that's a different story.. ;-)

Thanks.

There's not much point of doing that because whenever the ISO loader is released Sony will lock it down anyway, that's only beneficial to Europe and everyone will eventually update anyway since most people love Grand Theft Auto.

I believe TeamXecuter are working on a permanent solution, so even if they were to realease it before the PSP hits Europe I don't see Sony being able to do anything about it anyways.
