New Sony ploy: complimentary T-Mobile HotSpot Wi-Fi service for 3.30 PSPs
As you’ve probably heard, Sony released firmware 3.30 yesterday in the latest of their attempts to add new features to the PSP, and in turn keep up with the homebrew hackers.
One of these new features was the “Use Wireless Hotspot” option under the PSP Settings menu. In Sony‘s latest ploy to convert more people to the do the evil upgrade which prevents access to homebrew games and custom firmwares, it sat down with cellphone operator T-Mobile to get free Wi-Fi for 3.30 PSP users.
All you have to do is use the T-Mobile Hotspot locator and find the nearest Hotspot, go there, and select the “Use Wireless Hostpot” option in the settings menu. T-Mobile HotSpots can be found in quite a lot of places like Starbucks coffeehouses, Borders Books & Music stores, FedEx Kinko’s Office and Print Centers, and more.
The free Wi-Fi promotion runs for six months, however as we said yesterday, be wary about upgrading your PSP’s firmware. It is possible that you could go for a very long time without homebrew or custom firmware.
