This seems like a great week indeed for people who choose to use their Sony PSP like it was never intended to be used. After the PSP community rejoiced earlier about the 2.60 exploit that had been found, making it capable of accessing the kernel in updated PSP models, a stable 1.50 downgrader program has been launched.
The recent exploit for 2.60, although functional, has already reported making a few "bricks" in the hands of inexperienced PSP modders. Developed and tested as functional, this downgrade program uses the Grand Theft Auto eLoader program and successfully downgrades 2.50 and 2.60 PSPs to the vaulted 1.50, enabling happy gamers to play a slew of homebrew on their portable gaming devices.
