Integrated Google search coming to PSP

The official PlayStation Blog has announced that with upcoming firmware update v4.00 the PSP will add integrated Google searches directly into the XrossMediaBar interface.
The update will "replicate the Google Internet search experience, delivering the same search results that you’d get at www.google.com." The blog adds users will have a history recall of 20 items.

After you have installed the latest firmware, simply click on the XMB Network icon and go to new Internet Search icon. You can then use Google search as if you were on a home PC.

Additionally, the 4.00 update will bring a new feature allowing the user to "change viewing speed during playback of videos stored on your Memory Stick PRO Duo, so you can speed through or slow down what you’re watching."

I thought we could already use Google from the very start when the web browser was first introduced to the PSP?
So what's the big deal lol?

Sounds like a lame update. Sometimes i think Sony just puts out updates to create buzz. Because some of the updates they have put out so far have just been not even worth the time to download.
