1. In-game XMB – not enough RAM.
2. Improved web browser – ditto.
3. Improved flash player – ditto.
4. Using the memory stick as a cache for ANYTHING – the PSP has no MMU, which means no mapping a cache to any other device but the RAM without huge amounts of code. Not to mention that the memory stick is already ridiculously SLOOOOW.

Things that homebrewers have ALREADY DONE that Sony needs to move their ass on:

1. RSS feed reader that reads text and displays images, and allows you to browse the web while listening to podcasts
2. Divx/Xvid/Quicktime/FLV playback (in PSPTube)
3. FLAC/OGG playback

“@FreePlay PS3 firmware was hacked too and sony still makes updates with cool features, not some stupid things like google in XMB omg!… So whats the difference ?”

No. The PS3 firmware *HAS NOT* been hacked.

Some things on my wishlist:
in-game XMB
media extender (like PS3 is)
PSN access
PSN Store (only for purchases! please don’t get rid of the PSP website)

1) FLAC support. FLAC is a lossless audio codec supported by lots of Sony pro-level software like Vegas, etc. Playback in the PSP would be fantastic!

2) Ogg Vorbis support. Ogg Vorbis is technically superior to MP3 and offers lossy file sizes similar to MP3.

Both can be implemented royalty-free. They are both open-source and unencumbered by patents and therefore implemented at minimal cost to Sony with great gains for the userbase, both present and prospective purchasers.

IMO, this would make the PSP a truly converged ‘Walkman for today’, and put its audio codec support up to today’s modern standards.

Please consider this for future upates as the PSP evolves. Thank you!

Seems Sony doesn’t care about what we have to say, as there weren’t even responses to a single post in here. Kind of sad, and does start to really show that Sony is just keeping the PSP around long enough to showcase the PSP2, one system that will be likely follow the PS3 in that much of games will be available on disk, and usable after being paid for to be unlocked a few weeks after the game is released.

Thanks Sony, really shows what customers you care about, the PS3 owners and those in Japan.

Certain games is by far not all, there are actually very few that let you use your own music in them and this causes people to spend their extra dough on buying (or, often enough) rebuying an mp3 player just so they can listen to their own music in games.

Now I understand it isn’t very viable for Sony to do, not after they unlocked 333MHz for developers and set the extra RAM in the Slim to be used as a cache for faster loading, but it is something that needs to come as a release feature in the next system.

By then it will be standard among home consoles, and is a feature sorely needed in portables due to limited space for developers as well as portables always getting (significantly) smaller budgets then home console games.
