I still say Sony should brick all modded PSPs just before a new model with more features comes out.  Force some repurchases.

BR has been cracked to hell and back, and its been like that for ages. They can change keys now, but it'd be useless.

If Sony were to intentionally try to brick modded PSPs, then they'd be in for tons of lawsuits and bad press, wether or not its well founded. But even then it wouldn't do anything since Pandoras battery can recover a bricked PSP. Oh, and thats if you could trick modded PSP owners to upgrade to a firmware that bricks handhelds in the first place.

All I want to say is both of your post are correct and Intelligent I like the trick the modded psp user to upgrade his firmware and get bricked. If you modded it you probably wouldnt want to update.

Thats were sony in the future could use an auto update when a game pops in you cant play it unless you update! that might keep people from modding maybe.

Also I have a customer with a 200 MB original xbox loaded with all the original nintendo games tv shows porn a ton on MP3s

and quite a few original xbox games its amazing what modding can do!

 Haha, thats what they've been trying for ages. At this point ther are several ways to get around this - play a ripped version of the game, custom firmware, firmware loader, and I believe that there may be a firmware spoofer as well.
