If anyone is looking for a site that strips webpages down easy. There is one recommended for cell phones here link
Its called iyhy.com. It strips web pages down to pretty much nothing but text. Not very flashy, but you should be able to explore all pages w/ minimum memory requirements.

very easy hook up your psp with the usb, in the main menu go to the far left and scroll up for usb connection ,once your computer reads the memory stick as a removeable hard drive, goto the following folder

PSP/Games <_------- here you will have to create a new folder called UPDATE in all caps, drop the eboot file here once its copied, you then exit the usb connection by pressing 0 will take u back to the main screen goto the far right and you should look uinder the saved data utility or mem stick you will see firmware 2.o run it, it will create a new icon, called internet browser

I followed Luke's instructions above, as well as making the filename in caps, but when I went into "Memory Stick" under "Game", the 2.0 file says "Corrupted Data". I downloaded it from the link at the top of the page. Any suggestions? I'm thinking that the exe files are not compatible with Mac, which is the type of machine I am using to download and transfer data.

Hey I just want to know, does installing this Japanese Update in any way void the 1 year warranty? I read the warranty and I don't think it will, but I'm retarded. I've got some dead pixles and I need to know If this will ruin my ability to send my PSP in for repair.
