Both my kids have them. They love them. I tried them out. Mostly I just convert movies for them to watch on them.

Thanks for replies,

I was wondering, how do I set up the connection properly, and how do I pay bills for using PSP network? A dumb question, I know, but I just want to be sure ;P
And I wanted to know is there any way to play Playstation 1 ISO's on 2.60 (mine current) firmware by not downgrading it to 1.50, I haven't found any solutions but downgrading it, wich I don't want to do yet?

For the PSP network, it's yes and no. Yes, you have to pay to have internet at your house... so you are paying for it. But it doesn't cost extra to run a psp on your existing connection, as long as you have a wireless connection.

Or you could do what my friend does...

If someone lives near you has a unprotected wireless connection, connect to theirs (on comp) and let the PSP scan for that and see if it works

Witch is also known as illegal Skyline, only poor retards leech off of other people internet for free. When you do that, the people will have slower internet and a decrease in download speeds. And most people that buy wireless routers, know about the risk of people using their internet so they take the precautions.

I know that. And I told him this but he doesn't care. He does it when he gets grounded and his brother cuts off his own connection to his own router.

I have an wireless ADSL router so I don't have to use my friends, S2000_Skyline12, but the problem is that I do not know how to connect my PSP to it.

This is why I have security enabled and I do not broadcast my wireless ssid.

It's in the manual. But if your like my kids, when they got them, they fired them up and just started to play them.... I had to back up all thier gamesaves and format their memcard properly. I had to google how to get connected properly though, they are a PITA, and transmit in wirelessB..

Good. And this is why I use a wired connection.

Well actually no...its sort of illegal to play psx games on ur psp, and u have to downgrade it to do run them....or to run any sort of 'applications'....which is also illegal btw.

I second that, and in my opinion, if you buy a new PSP and use it only for music, video, and PSP games, you're missing alot of fun and possibilities. Oh and, I downgraded mine to 1.50 yesterday, my RL friend did it for me! ;P
