With Nullriver's release of a Windows version of PSPWare, Mac users no longer have all the fun. Just like the Mac version, the PC app is simple, fast, stable and makes it easy to sync music, photos, movies and save games to and from your PSP.

I recently bought this software, and I have read many reviews on this, but this disappointed me. I could not find the video converter, and since I use Mozilla Firefox, PSPware synced my PSP with Internet Explorer. The video sync would not work either, and it is really hard to get used to very fast. A good thing is, the program is really small.

This program is best used with a very large memory stick, and iTunes. It has a feature where everytime you connect the PSP, it will sync with it. I would recommend just dragging and dropping the normal way, and I don't suggest any type of program to manage your PSP.

Overall, it was not that good, but it might be good for you.

Downloaded the trial, installed it, ran it, then realised it had deleted all my media files from my memory stick.

Yes, there was a message telling me that in order for the software to manage my stick it would need to delete everything first but I took that to mean it was going to back it up, delete it and then restore it.

The lovely man at Nullsoft told me that I was basically stupid for storing media on my PSP and I should have backed it up elsewhere plus I should have read their ambigous statement correctly.

So I won't be buying it and would advise anyone else to just take a backup of the memory stick using windows explorer and then zip it up. It might not look pretty but it does the job properly.

I have tried many pieces of software since getting my PSP in the quest of making the most out of its many features and PSPWare has to be my favorite. Its main strength is its elegance. It is a very clean and well designed piece of software that sticks to doing a few things and doing them well.

When I first tried the software and saw the interface I was impressed. I've tried most of the other programs out there and this is by far the best looking. It is very intuitive. It launches itself automatically when you connect your PSP. It has seperate buttons for each of its functions: Music, Photos, Movies, Backup, and Advanced. The Music section will automatically intergrate with iTunes, which is nice. Photos is very simple to use. Backup creates running backups to all your games. Very nice. Advanced lets you get under the hood a little if you wish. And now the best is saved for last... Movies.

You can just simply drag and drop most any format into the movie section and it will automatically convert it to the proper format and you can even choose between 16:9 output or 4:3. Under options you can choose the quality of the audio and video so that you can fit it on your memory card. If you intend on watching full length movies, you should at least have a 512MB card or better yet 1GB. The ease of use and speed of the conversion process is what sold me on PSPWare. After going through the agony of trying to get other programs such as 3GP Converter, a program like this is amazing.

Now for a few minor gripes or suggestions. The program needs a progress bar over the video section. When converting huge files it would be reassuring to know approximately how much time is left in the process. It would also be nice if the program would recognize available memory on the memory stick and warn before you start converting if it wasn't going to fit. Finally, can the Registration button disappear once the product has been paid for? I know, very nitpicky, but it bugs me.

Overall, a wonderful program that I was happy to pay 15 dollars for.

It does almost everything you need to manage the files on your PSP quickly and easily. Synchronization is a snap. It's refreshing to see that development is still active too. The UI is attractive, simple, and easy to use. As of version 2.0.3, they're still lacking WMV conversion support. For my WMVs, I use 3gp_converter. It's not perfect, but with active development and a broad client base, I'm sure they'll come close to it.

This is my one stop shop now for management of what goes on my PSP on a daily basis. Can do alot of the converting itself (except for some VOB and MOV files). Really easy to use.
