given. but that doesn't entitle you to obtain iso and all.. this is intended for illegal spread of ISO etc. For the simple fact is that whatever the initial developer's thoughts and ideas may have been, people misuse the ability of PSP to play ISO.

I don't want to get off topic here on this subject, but the fact that the PSP can run ISO's isn't the problem. The fact the people have crack what Sony spent a lot of money on, to do something they don't want you too. You can take any moral view you like. Sony. or any company does not like, and will stop it if they can any homebrew use.

Game not licensed for the PSP and/or Sony. No.

Yes.

No, it's not licensed to do so.

Exodus Wrote:Okay. I have been reading around and I am sort of confused right now....  With a psp with the new motherboard, will there be any way to get custom firmware at all?  Even after DC6 is released?

TA-085-V1/2 = Any DC works
TA-088-V1 = Any DC works, just can't create a service mode battery.
TA-088-V2 = Only DC ver. 6 might work, and can't create a service mode battery.
TA-088-V3 = The Pandora exploit will not work at all.

Exodus Wrote:I have another question.  Have these new motherboards been seen yet in north america?  Just wondering, because I'm thinking of now going and buying a slim today or tomorrow.  But i won't buy one if there is a possibility that I might get one that can't have CFW.

I don't think so. Like wise man said.

All is not lost yet.  But for those considering buying/hacking a PSP, I would get one now.
Buy one of the Stars wars white, or daxter packs.   They should be TA-085v2 I believe, so as long as you have access to a Pandora, you should be set.

Slushba132 Wrote:...If nothing else look for a model number on the box.
I know the old boxes use to have A, B or C depending on what model the psp inside was.
They could have done the same thing with the slim. Just go for an older model of the slim that probably has an older motherboard.

mmm, now the question is...... is any indication or whatsoever wee know this???

From what I hear there is no box code, or any other way to tell if your getting a v1, v2, or v3.
