Before you trade for something Lite-er, consider slimming down your portly portable with the new homebrew utility Outa-Space. Get this, it actually removes functionality from PSP's flash memory!Useless fonts? Gone. Photos, Music, and Video menus? Gone, gone, gone. XMB web browser? C'ya! GPS? 'Outta here! RSS? What RSS? Network Update? Puh-lease, I gots custom firmware n00b!"But why?" you might be asking. Well, Outa-Space supposedly removes up to 4mb of flash memory, freeing up room for -- what else -- an extra-long gameboot clip! FTW! Um, yeah... ftw.[Via PSP Fanboy]

    Do you feel like your PSP does too much? Maybe you want to remove some of it's functionality, so it can be more of an antiquated machine. You can remove these features from your PSP flash memory: Un-needed fonts Camera / GPS functionality Network Update Certificate Utility The photo menu The music menu The video menu The XMB's web browser RSS functionality. And why would you want to get rid of any of these? Well, the PSP's internal memory is only so large, and some homebrew users might be interested in making incredibly large gameboots. Certainly, this is an interesting concept: a homebrew program that removes functionality, instead of adding it.See also:Would Sony eliminate PSP features?[Via PSP3D]
