Interesting, the latest update for the PSP may lead to some new loopholes - PSPUpdates writes "We are guessing that the 2.01 update was a "hotfix" to clear the exploitable toc2rta libtiff exploit in the PSP's photo viewer. Expect this 2.50 fix to be a more stable wall against letting hackers run homebrew applications and games on their PSPs in many ways. On the other hand, it's easy to speculate that 2.50 could be easier to hack than 2.01 now that copyright video can be played on a memory stick, and the location free player has been added. Those two programs could open up potentially exploitable loopholes." Link.
