PSP v4.00 Update (Adds Google Search directly to the XMB)

admin — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 08:04:45 +0000

A new PSP system software update, v4.00, will be released soon, adding Google Internet search directly to the XMB (XrossMediaBar) interface.

This new upgrade replicates the Google Internet search experience, delivering the same search results that you’d get at www.google.com. And with a search history recall of 20 items, Web searches couldn’t be easier.

After downloading and installing the firmware on your PSP, click on the XMB’s Network icon and then the new Internet Search icon. Enter your keywords and then Google’s algorithms take over. You’ll need to be connected to the Internet via a wireless access point or Wi-Fi hotspot. Googling has never been more convenient on the PSP.

Another new feature delivered through the 4.00 update is the ability to change viewing speed during playback of videos stored on your Memory Stick PRO Duo, so you can speed through or slow down what you’re watching.

Instant Messaging for the PSP

eBuddy, the free web-based instant messenger, has just launched their web client for the PlayStation Portable. eBuddy writes, “by opening the PSP browser and going to m.ebuddy.com you can chat on MSN, Yahoo!, AIM and Google Talk. No download required and it’s free to use.”

While instant messaging would be a lot more convinient with a Qwerty keyboard, the PSP’s built-in texter will have to suffice.
