Europe now has 2.70 Firmware!

I just got home to sit down and relax with my PSP, thinking what the new features Japan and US are having with their PSP’s, when I decided to check for my update. It seems that we in the UK, and Europe I presume, now have the update to 2.70. As reported already, the new firmware implements a host of new features:

[Music]

• Added file extension to playable AAC format.

 
[Settings]

• Added [Enable Flash Player] in [System Settings].
  *To change this option, you need to connect to the internet.
• “Simplified Chinese” and “Traditional Chinese” added to [System Settings] -> [System Language].
• Added [RSS Channel Settings].
• Added [UMD Video L & R Button] into [Video Settings].

[Others]

• Fixed some issues when using a memory stick with more than 2GB free space.
  *This problem has not happened among the memory sticks sold in Japan until April 24.

For those enjoying homebrew, we suggest you dont upgrade as it has been confirmed the GTA exploit for 2.60 does not work on this firmware.
