Those who have 8GB and 16GB Memory Stick Duo cards may be experiencing issues with the handheld not recognizing that sufficient space exists when trying to download directly from the PS Store, even when you are
certain that
echochrome will be less than 14.1 GB. According to the
Official PlayStation Blog, Sony is aware of the problem and is working on a fix in the form of Firmware 5.01 (
version 5.00, which enabled the PSP to directly access the PS Store, was released last week).
No word on when the update will be available. In the meantime, if you're having trouble with the storage recognition, you can still download PSP games via the PlayStation 3 or PC PS Store, like you did in the days before 5.00 (i.e. October 13 and before).

I downloaded the update last night, not sure when exactly it was first available.

I did too. I'm glad to see someone else downloaded this and I'm not crazy.

I downloaded it too, although that doesn't mean you guys aren't crazy.

Uh oh... someone misplaced a decimal and now 100,000,000 bytes are missing.
And I believe someone has my stapler.

Downloaded 5.01 and my 1GB card still doesn't work, I get to the end of a 200mb download on my psp and it just gives me an error number 80109884 anyone know what this code means?
I've asked Sony support on email and they didn't answer me... I've got to call them to fix the problem?
