PSP 2.60 Firmware

Sony still cares about us, [tag]PSP[/tag] owners.

The [tag]2.60 firmware[/tag] was released today, and has some new cool features:

  • [tag]WMA[/tag] Playback – Yes, you can now play WMA files in your PSP as long as you agree to an EULA. Go to the PSP Settings menu and choose WMA Playback to enable it. You have to be connected to the net for this.
  • [tag]RSS[/tag] Channels – This is awesome! You can now subscribe to podcasts directly from your PSP and stream the audio (as long as you are connected to the net). I still have to check if this feature is integrated with the Feeds from the [tag]Sony PSP Media Manager.[/tag]

Other minor updates are also included in this update. The browser seems faster than the previous one, and the LocationFree Player has some volume control changes (I can’t test this ’cause I don’t have a LFP).

[tag]Sony[/tag] is working hard to update the PSP features and I really admire that… too bad they don’t listen to other user sugestions that could make the PSP even better. I still hope that one day I can listen to mp3 and browse the net at the same time.
