    PSP 5.0 Firmware Hacked Two Days After Release

Meanwhile, illustrious PSP hacker Dark_AleX has already thwarted Sony's new 5.0 security measures, making it safe to update without permanently losing access to precious homebrew. I might just have to dust off the old PSP to see what all the fuss is about. [PSP News]
