RE: The many protections of the Playstation Vita
Urgh, this thing requires you to install crapware and can't be used as an arbitrary storage device?

What next, Sony start installing rootkits on your PC? (again)

Actually, I'm a bit critical as to whether that really improves security or not.  Copying files that the PSP doesn't recognise doesn't trigger an exploit - only files that it does recognise, like TIFFs or savegames were exploitable anyway.  For any other auxiliary files, they can be wrapped in formats like .wav anyway, assuming you already have executable permissions on the device.
