Custom PSP firmware 3.90 M33 out, Skypey

Mmm, nothing tastes quite like a fresh batch of homebrew hacks on day-old firmware. PSP owners yearning to get their Skype on need wait no more. The M33 team has released a custom version of Sony's 3.90 firmware available via the new Network Update or directly over that interwoven web of glowing tubes. Really, what more could you ask for on a Friday?

Must be in record time!

Damn my batterys below 78%, this is gonna take forever on USB charge!

[DJ @ Feb 1st 2008 4:31AM]

I hope fat & slim will be like two peas in a pod. Does this firmware apply to both?

[tomo @ Feb 1st 2008 5:12AM]

Now if only Engadget could get Blogsmith to fix their shitty commenting system as fast.

It's kind of sad that PSP-fat does not support Skype yet. However, I believe those who have brilliantly created custom firmware will see this as a challenge.

I wonder if it would work with my fat ass PSP

[Rob @ Feb 1st 2008 8:46AM]

Oh man, I got excited for a minute thinking it was for the PSP-fat. I'm doing just fine with my fat PSP. Besides, I already have a wireless Skype phone.

[z0idberg @ Feb 1st 2008 9:22AM]

So does anyone know of ANYWHERE in the UK where you can get a microphone for the PSP? (other than for £30 with the talkman).

[michael @ Feb 1st 2008 9:43AM]

Yes, this custom firmware adds skype to the PSPfat.

[Haxornick89 @ Feb 1st 2008 12:06PM]

yes the custom firmware adds skype to the fat psp but will it work no due to the lack of ram residing inside the psp have fun bricking lol

I have the new Sony 3.90 firmware how could I hack psp to get the 3.90 M33 onto it??? Please help I've looked everywhere but I can't find anything.

[someguy @ Feb 5th 2008 12:53PM]

look up 'pandoras battery'
you will need an already homebrew enabled psp and spare battery, but it will work

[jhon @ Feb 5th 2008 7:33PM]

do you need an already custome firmware for this to work or 3.90

[j @ Feb 7th 2008 12:26AM]

how to convert/change from 3.90 original to 3.90 m33 custom firmware..
plzzzz...help me!!!!!!!

[mail4gus @ Feb 8th 2008 2:03AM]

Im looking to buy a PSP Slim, i had a fatty one couple years ago but at that moment i thought it was worthless just for the games and music (i would never buy a UMD Movie instead of a DVD) and i got rid of it. Now with all the advance homebrew stuff im thinking to give it a try.... but im looking for some info and opinion of the experts. (I own a Treo 700p also with a lot of apps in it like Internet Radio, DiVX, Messenger and SlingTV).

I want to know which of this features works with the 3.90 firmware and it's been tested by any of you:
- Skype (with Skype In)
- Youtube (compared to the Ipod and Itouch)
- MSN Messenger
- Internet Radio
- AVI DiVX Files
- any problem playing any original games after the upgrade?
