PSP Firmware 2.80 Released
Sony has released a new firmware update for the PSP, 2.80, which is now available via Network Update. The major changes in this version include:
[list]
[*] You can now download video and image content under [RSS Channel];
[*] You can now register devices via a wireless LAN access point under [LocationFree Player];
[*] You can now play AAC files with file extension .3gp under [Music]; and
[*] You can now play content saved in “Music,” “Picture” and “Video” folders on a Memory Stick. (Apparently, this means you don’t have to rename video files, and you can play them without using special folders.)
[/list]
I found that it will play most video files with the extension .mp4 and unprotected video files for video iPod with the extension m4v, but not protected videos purchased in iTunes Music Store. It will not play WMV files or QuickTime movies.
