Just tried the freeware PSPTube app by a Japanese developer. This is so shiny!
Now I can watch transformer re-runs on the PSP via youtube. My kids are also loving the fact that they can also watch Barney shows hosted on you tube.
This makes the PSP a better value against the iPod. Aside from the awesome games, you can catch up on your RSS feeds (via google reader mobile edition), play music, play movies, and now stream you tube videos directly!
Now if only this thing could also read PDF's.

Diggnation Vidcast on PSP
Wooooottt!!!
Am probably the last person to try this, having had the PSP since last year but never really got to try this feature since I was stuck with the 1.5 firmware.
Oh my, this is really shiny!
If I could get smoothjazz.com to stream on this thingy, that would really be rockingly shiny!

Location Free Television in Tokyo
Via Slashdot.
Picture this.
- You are an OFW.
- The Filipino Channel (TFC) for you is an expensive luxury.
- You got $200 plus to spare for a Location Free device (get the cheaper wired only model).
- You got reliable and cheap DSL connection back in the Philipines.
- You got some decent understanding of how TCP/IP works.
With location free, you can watch your favorite local shows (PBA, Teleseryes, etc) on your lappy-tappy, PSP and other supported devices anywhere with an internet connection.
Yes, you can currently time shift almost any video/audio at this current day and age, so why bother with location free? Well, this one is real time, meaning you can watch the local shows live!
Hooray! for the flat world.

Stream iTunes to your PSP
Sweeeeeettt!
With a bit more RSS XML whackery, mt-daapd can probably do the job. :))
Got to refresh my aging PERL kung-fu if the lazy web doesn't have a solution available at the moment.

PSP Update
3.10 Custom Firmware is out!
Tried updating our PSP last night because am interested in the slightly faster browsing experience the new firmware has to offer. Since this is a firmware flash, the risk of bricking is quite real. Fortunately the update process went smoothly and the PSP came out unscathed.
The update lets me for the first time try viewing the videos included in the sample UMD disc. And boy the screen is absolutely gorgeous! The spiderman 2 preview was difinitely shiny to watch on the PSP screen.
The update also updated the audio player. It now have a visual display akin to what you see on modern day media players. Pretty shiny still.
Sony should provide RSS feed reader for text tho. Until now you can only view video and audio RSS feeds. An email client would also add to this handheld's appeal. On the accessory side, an external keyboard will tripple the shiny factor of this little bugger. A driver for the Palm's Universal Keyboard will make this a really sweet machine.
Another app that Sony should add is a VOIP client. PSP with VOIP or Skype integration will really make it rock!
Anyway web browsing is a tad faster. Something that made me do the update in the first place. Still trying to find a decent web based RSS reader as Google still doesn't have a mobile version of its Google Reader app.
