SkaterAustin Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I heard somewhere that in the near future, sony will release psp's with better batteries, so that the 33mhz barrier can be reached without taking a huge hit on battery life. 585783639[/snapback] I would expect 2nd generation psp's by this christmas or by march next year.. My friends dad is a product tester and engineer for sony and says that the new 2nd gen psp will have a few new features, fixed problems with the screen such as dust, pixels, etc, possibly colored versions of it, better battery life, 333mgz clocked processor not 222mgz, and maybe a new revision of its wi-fi.

BroChaos Veteran Posted April 16, 2005 Veteran Share Posted April 16, 2005 according to all the articles i've seen, the clock speed lock is done in software, and is not a hardware lock. honestly, i don't think they'll make any changes, or add any features. then it'll just turn into the whole apple ipod thing. a new model every 6 months will just **** off all of the people who bought it already.

sundayx Veteran Posted April 16, 2005 Veteran Share Posted April 16, 2005 i dont see new psp coming out soon, not even end of year. why? sonys strategy on the psp, or any of their playstation products are not revised until the software and games are fully settled into the market. you see, most of the upgrades will be firmware based. clock setting (hardware clocks cmon, software clocks? the hell) on processors may be adjustable based on the demands of the games in the market. expect clocks to be upped by firmware, not hardware revision, and quality fixes, including a new battery on new units, and browser, or software upgrades.

I just hope they don't come out with an update that has a dif. model number and such that my PRP couldn't get it. edit: arrg my PSP still loses the connection to the web when I idle on a web page...

Turn it off and should work fine. You'll find that in your system settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried everything from that to using static addressing to messing with DNS settings to turning off gaming mode on my router to changing the rts settings and such. Others seem to have had problems with d-link routers as well. Next time I'm going with a router that has community firmware projects... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was speaking that second gen out of the box will have 333mgz enabled.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamend Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Also make sure to put them into a folder named "MUSIC". If that's somehow too complicated for you, you could try Sony's SonicStage program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emo Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 i may get one but theres no use for it as an mp3 player since i have an ipod, i probably wouldnt play games at all, and i wouldnt really watch a lot of movies on it. so, is there really any other uses for it, or would it seem useless to me?
