The 2.01 update to the PSP's firmware is out
(at least in Japan). We could ask when it'll be released in the West, but the question on most people's minds is how
long it'll be until hackers crack the 2.01 update as
well.
[UPDATE: The update's apparently available to U.S. residents via WiFi Network Update, too. Thanks,
GTi-VR6 and
Joe! Is this the official U.S. version, though? Further UPDATE: It's been
confirmed on the U.S. PSP web site. Thanks,
Agent X!]
The latest update fixes the buffer-overflow problem which allowed the PSP Downgrader to do its dirty deeds, and may
possibly improve the security of the system in the process.
You can check out the Google beta translation of the official page below, or try your language skills at the original
Japanese page here.
[Thanks, Joe]
