Very much doubt you'll get a white one which is v1.50 they will be v2.00, and if you upgrade to v2.50 you get a region free player for movies good move by Sony. And don't just buy one so you can play copied games.

fair enough mate , you can do what you want,do you think games get made for you to steal them?! would you go into a shop and steal a game?!
if you want a white one go to www.lik-sang.com

to print the disk no, but what do you think it costs rockstar less than thirty buck to develop GTA???? some games run in to millions and millions to develop. (years to make, loads of man power, yep thats cheap) so i think that maybe justify's the price of them. Considering there is so many people getting a cut of the £30. if you don't like the price of the games don't buy the system.
most of the games on the psp are ported over from the ps1 and 2 so i think the devlopment costs would be quite small and now a days most games use the same game engine all they do is recode it like you would a dvd for example but £30 pounds for a game is a tad expensive

thanks for information i didn't already know, glad you cleared that up for me!. Fair enough you guys think the games are to expensive but its still doesn't justify stealing does it?

Nice to see all my posted replies get deleted...
I wasnt talking about pirating games, I was talking about running other homebrew applications, such as the ones I spoke about, i.e Using your PSP to play mp3 streams, that are totally legal to listen to.
Christ if you really want to get picky, remove that newsgroup tutorial whilst your at it, as you can use newsgroups to access 'illegal content'
Can see why people get the f**king hump with their posts disappearing when in effect they've done sweet FA wrong.
Still, someone needs their daily power trip i guess

Playing films from a different region isnt illegal at all, I know I said that people use the older versions to play 'copies' but I said I just use it to backup original games, so I dont have to carry around a UMD all day, and have it hogging the battery life.
I'm sure you can see my point Dave, seeing as your quite a PSP fan yourself, I'm sure you'll know how usefull they can be, and that them UMDs do suck that battery life quite a bit.
Reason I stated about the Newsgroup post is because its a very well known source of illegal content, and even explains what site to use to find an index of every single file thats pirated onto a newsgroup.
Edit:
There are many UMD 'Dumpers' that put the UMD contents onto your memory card.
I don't feel robbed at all, I've purchased all my games for my PSP also, but I like to use it as a media player aswell, as it means I can sit at work listening to a streaming radio station, without lugging my laptop about

you must also see that it wasn't just your posts that were removed, there were others also that also mentioned pirating, so it was a blanket removal, its a thin line between what you wrote and what other wrote.
It is very rare to get a homebrew user who doesn't exploit the software in an illegal way.
I personally have bought all of my games as I believe they were worth the money, its not like they are any more expensive that an xbox or ps2 game.
What will be daylight robbery is when the XBOX 360 games come out at £50 and over!

I can see your point, but I believe that supporting the game developers is the only way we are going to get more games on said platform.
I was unaware of any other replies disappearing, as I didn't pay that closer attention, and I haven't been on the net all day.
You could say that there is a thin line with alot of things, e.g that newsgroup thread, some people will use it legally, and then you'll get some that will use it to access pirated software.
Not trying to pick that thread on purpose, its just the first one that i've seen, and people I know, and myself know that it is a good source to obtain illegal files (not that I obtain any from newsgroups, or any other source)
