2.0 worked. Then i went into network settinsg to configure the browser etc. Home network. Browsed and then left browser. Now my psp is stuck in network settings with bubble in bottom corner syncing or something. If anyone has had this problem please let me know.

It would be great if somehow they made the screen tapable like a PDA and add features a PDA would have, like calendars, contacts, email, etc.. Anybody know if this will be added as asystem feature or UMD.

I'm updating from 1.52. It's possible Sony added something to prevent this unofficial release in America. I would be careful about voiding the warranty...
