How to Mod PSP Software
The Sony PSP is a powerful portable video game console. The software that runs the PSP is called Sony firmware. It can be modified to use alternate firmware called custom firmware. This modified software will allow your PSP to do many things that Sony never intended, like running full PSP games from the PSP memory stick. Installing the modified software requires a Pandora battery and Magic memory stick.
