PSP Firmware Upgrade 3.11 Released
February 08, 2007

Just a short time after 3.10 Sony already released firmware 3.11. This update fixes the freezing bug found in the downloadable-for-PSP title R-Type.

Also:
- Support for PLAYSTATION®Network titles has been expanded.
- [Reset Game] has been added as an option to the menu for PLAYSTATION®Network titles.

So if you do not own a PS3 which enables you to download and play PS1 games, this new firmware isn 't that interresting at the moment.

**Warning: DO NOT UPDATE if you still want to use homebrew on your PSP! Currently (February 08, 2007) SONY FW 3.03 is the highest FW you can still downgrade.

Big news! Hackers have cracked the brand new PSP fir-- No, wait, sorry. We got our posts out of order. What we meant to say is that Sony has just released the brand new PSP firmware: Version 3.72. If you're interested, you can get the fresh new firmware through the PSP's "Network Update" feature.

If you don't have a PS3 though, it may not be worth your time, as it seems like the only functionality it adds is expanded support for PlayStation Network titles. We'd bet there's some under-the-hood type stuff designed to thwart hackers once and for all hidden within though, if you're a glutton for futility.
