You can see how much better it is, after I set it to fit. Auto wasnt even close.

Features this firmware has again for those who dont know;

[Internet]
- Added an internet browser (can be disabled)

[Video]
- Jump function for UMD VIDEO and MUSIC
- A-B repeat function for UMD Video, MUSIC and memory stick video
- Added 4:3 mode for memory stick video
- Added audio switch function for memory stick video
- Added MP4 (AVC) playback function for memory stick video

[Music]
- With SonicStage V3.2 (not announced yet), ATRAC3 plus music files can be put into a memory stick pro duo
- Added MP4 (AAC) and WAVE (Linear PCM) playback function

[Photo]
- Added wallpaper function
- Transmit/receive images function
- Added support for TIFF/GIF/PNG/BMP files

[Setting]
- Added Korean language
- Added [Character set] function
- Added [Theme setting] function
- Added [Diable internet browser] function
- Added WPA-PSK (TKIP) support
- Added keyboard input mode for web input

There are so many things that make browsing the web easy on this now. I feel like they really thought out how they would work it. But then I dont have a web able PDA, its probably the same way they do it, with a small screen and all. All in all, Im pretty happy with it. :shrug:

One of the better additions IMO. I could give a fvck less about the web browser, because anywhere I'll be with a wireless signal, I will most likely have my laptop with me.

Have to convert it to MP4.

But that's easy to convert although it takes time.

The only bad thing about this firmware is that none of the homebrews will work with it. I refuse to upgrade my 1.50 firmware if it means giving up my emulators.

Yes, but it's basically hack protection firmware. But only people who's going to upgrade are 1.51 and 1.52 people and those can't use hacks anyway.
