Looks like the PSP is not dead… LocoRoco is a great game, probably the best game Sony released for the PSP until now.

Hello,
As part of the Linux-NTFS project, I’m happy to announce my contribution
to ntfsmount and libntfs which resulted ntfs-3g, a read-write ntfs driver,
capable for unlimited file creation and deletion.
The driver was successfully tested very exhaustively for a longer period of
time by many ways and methods, creating and destroying millions of files and
directories on newly created images, and on over 40 real, very diverse NTFS
images collected over the last four years.
The README file is copied below which includes more general, performance and
quality information with answers and future plans.
Please make a backup of your NTFS volume by ntfsclone and try to reproducible
break ntfs-3g, if you can. If you are able to do so then please let us know,
preferable providing your NTFS metadata image, if it couln’t be reproduced by
other ways.
The driver can be downloaded from
http://mlf.linux.rulez.org/mlf/ezaz/ntfs-3g-20070714-BETA.tgz
Please note that I’m leaving for an over 5,000 km long Far North and Arctic
Ocean advanture on Sunday morning (European time) and won’t be able to read
and answer emails for almost a month (no, I’m not escaping, I plan to come
back alive ;). Originally I planned to fix all the minor issues listed below
but no more time left for me and I think it’s better to release now, in case
I would get lost somewhere on the road 
Well, actually I hope that most
issues will be resolved when I’m back!
Happy testing, problem reporting and coding,
Szaka
I don’t play with my PSP since I bought the DS Lite.
Why? Not only because New Super Mario Bros., Tetris and Brain Age are friggin addictive, but mainly due to the fact that there’s nothing new worth to buy/play since June (except for Locoroco which I’m getting next month).
The PSP has become a lame homebrew platform. Except for some emulators, the homebrew scene on the PSP is awfully dull and does not bring anything worth of atention. On the other side, Sony is still killing one of the best portable consoles ever, with lame PSOne remakes, expensive UMD movies and a lack of a good Music / Movies / Games Online service. The PSP is, at this time, in a state of coma.
Tekken Dark Resurrection, Sonic Rivals, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Portable Ops., these are the games that still give me some hope and stop me from selling my PSP.
My advice to Sony: stop wasting time with GPS adapters, VOIP and videocameras (that seem never to be released anyway) and start developing good games, creative games. Lower the game prices, stop releasing remakes (aren’t we getting a PSONE emulator?), release more Japanese titles on the rest of the world.
LISTEN TO THE GAMERS!
Following Canonical’s initiative with Ubuntu, The Linux Store started a similar project. On their website you can order for free some of the most well known Linux distros available.
Spread the word!
Last week after recieving the Ubuntu cds from Canonical as usual, I installed Dapper on my Asus A2 laptop. Installation went fine, except for the same old problem with my SMC 2835 wireless pcmcia card. Once again I had to go through all that process of getting my wireless connection working, but this time I took an alternative road.
- First of all install Automatix, this script will install the NDISWrapper and Gnome NetworkManager packages need to simplify the process.
- If you do a ifconfig you’ll probably see your wireless card listed as eth2, this will change later to wlan0.
- Make sure you have the NDISWrapper installed doing ndiswrapper on a terminal window. If you get a “command not found” error then something went wrong with Automatix, make sure you check the wreless networking packages. If you get an error response from the NDISWrapper that’s fine, it means you have it installed.
- This is one of the most important steps. Ubuntu loads the Prism54 kernel module, but this conflicts with the NDISWrapper, so you’ll have to sudo rmmod prism54 and then sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and add the line blacklist prism54 to the file and save.
- Reboot.
- Now, download the SMC 2835 Windows XP drivers, unpack and install with Windows Wireless Drivers (System > Administration > Windows Wireless Drivers and then Install New Driver).
- By now your Wireless NIC should be listed as Wlan0 on ifconfig.
- You should have the Gnome NetworkManager applet on the Gnome panel near the clock, click it and choose “Connect to Other Wireless Network” and you’ll see WEP and WPA options. Just enter your Wireless Network SSID and password and you’re done.
You can probably adapt this mini tutorial to another wireless nic so let me know if this works with you.
