FW 3.40 surfaces on Sony’s PSP South Korean website *UPDATE*

We're not certain if you are aware of this but Sony has an official dedicated site for the PlayStation Portable (PSP) in South Korea. Despite that, we believe that this move is rather sneaky for a company that has the homebrew community breathing down its neck.

Folks, welcome PSP Firmware 3.40. Oh Jeesus!

Now what does this one do? We're not too certain for now because the official sites for other markets, especially the English-speaking ones, are yet to be updated. Anyway, this was generated by an online translation engine:

• [these sense civil officials] were eliminated.
• [Is indicated information which from this sense civil official] with afterwords it will be able to confirm as a same fabrication.
• After selecting the icon of the game information the reporter [it selects △ buttons information] consecutively from the option menu.

We know that didn't make a lot of sense but the point is FW 3.40 has been released. In case this appears on your territory, we recommend staying away from it first. As you will all remember, DAX's PSP encountered a hardware problem - his UP modchip decided to stop working as he was trying to work on his latest custom firmware. Anyhow, here's a screenshot of that page:

Talking with fellow QJ blogger Pranav T., he mentions that PSP firmware 3.40 has already been decrypted. Yes, FW 3.40 for the PSP (which hasn't surfaced on the U.S. and Japan PlayStation sites as of writing), has already been decrypted.

Citing reliable contacts, it has come to our knowledge that, apparently, the keys haven't changed - this means that Team C+D's decrypter for firmware 3.30 will work on FW 3.40. We'll be updating you as more info comes our way.
