I've been messing around with this update's big, new feature--the Web browser--and compiled some thoughts on its strengths and weaknesses. While I'd like to think that Sony's product development team reads this blog religiously and will take my criticisms to heart for future updates, as a practical matter, it's more likely that this list will help you decide whether or not to sacrifice your v1.5 PSP's homebrew functionality in exchange for access to the Interweb. Without further ado:
STRENGTHS
WEAKNESSES
There's no question that the v2.0 Web browser dramatically expands the PSP's default feature set. But it also closes the loophole that makes homebrew gaming possible, so if you're more interested in SNES emulation than you are in downloading podcasts, this may be something of a Faustian upgrade.
