PSP Firmware 5.50 Released.

5.50 Released.

Sony has released 5.50. You can update via your PSP’s network update feature or via our download link below. However users looking to take advantage of the TIFF exploit will want to hold off updating.

Key features introduced in 5.50:

* XMB Information Board similar to the PS3’s
* Unregistered browsing on the PlayStation Store
* Create and access sub-folders for music, videos and photos
* Internet search for games directly from the XMB
* Free trial for two Trend Micro Internet security services

    lol. This is pretty interesting. Considering that you might need 5.05ofw fw for the HEN. I wonder if it might get delayed because of this.

    Nevertheless, a good update, PSP was begging for sub folders for awhile. Looks like a ps3 system software port.

    As for the other features, they’re “meh” to me. More annoying than useful.

    On a side note, people on every forum I’m visiting, including the Playstation forums are reluctant to update. Most likely because they know of the consequences of updating now.

    Tough choice, because if it were me on my slim I would have just updated to check out the subfolders and downgraded back.

    Oh and a question for HEN, m33 used to connect to alek for statistics when you connect to the playstationstore, are you going to integrate a feature like that? I hope they give us a option for that because of privacy issues though I doubt they will even put that in.

    If I didn’t know about CFW, I would be REALLY, REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THIS UPDATE!!! Unfortunately for Sony, I’m not going to “upgrade” (huh, it’s more like downgrading losing the features I have with CFW) to check it out until the M33 release comes out.

      No, they won’t go
      They work good in for example a 5.00 m33-3 (that’s the one i have)
