PSP Firmware 4.05 - Yup, another PSP firmware ... [PSP]

PSP Firmware 4.05 - Yup, another PSP firmware update's on the horizon! Exciting, no? This one's due "soon", and seems designed solely to spite Robbie Bach and his anti-PSP-as-a-music-player sentiments, as it's geared towards making your PSP music-playing experience just that little bit more pleasurable, which it will do by adding some new visualizers for music playback, "among other features".

Keira Knightley takes on another period piece, and art house patrons everywhere are salivating.

Another year, another Keira Knightley period drama. At 23, the English-born actress is building a respectable reputation for choosing classy, memorable roles, which she manages to balance with a burgeoning Hollywood career. Maybe she wants to prove she’s not just another pretty face, or maybe she’s still gunning for that Oscar (she was nominated once for Pride and Prejudice). Or maybe she just knows good material when she sees it, and given the early buzz and entrancing trailer, The Duchess looks like good material. Traditional material, yes, but good material all the same.

Sony Discontinues PSP Extended Battery Pack

PSP Fanboy just learned that Sony's discontinuing their 2200mAh PSP battery pack, an official aftermarket addon that would allow you to game for up to 12 hours or so. What's the deal? We're not sure, but someone from Sony said they're looking at other ways to "service the consumer," which might say to us that they're looking at ways to extend battery life without making the back of the PSP bulge out in an unseemly manner. And just when we learned how to hack your PSP for homebrew apps too. [PSP Fanboy]

PSP 3000 To Have Worse Battery Life, But Sony Takes Note

The PSP 3000 will have a brighter LCD with a wider color gamut and 5 times the contrast ratio of the PSP 2000. From the shots we've seen, it blows the old screen away—and that screen was already pretty decent. There is, of course, a catch. And that catch is that the PSP will lose somewhere between 20 and 30 minutes of battery life compared to the old PSP, putting its playtime to 3 1/2 to 4 hours. But to compensate, Sony will be rereleasing the just-discontinued PSP extended battery to the market which should still provide 8-10 hours of play. [Gamespot via Maxconsole]

Arts outperform entertainment at 1,200 events every summer

She is an active woman of between 35 and 54 with a good education, often to degree level. She’s enquiring, loves reading and enjoys exhibitions. But she never travels alone. She goes with friends, family, fiancé or her children. If not, she ropes in a workmate because her real passion is sharing her passions. The unwitting star of these statistics is a woman who represents a carefully defined target and contributes to 59.9% of an entirely Italian phenomenon: the rise of the arts festival. There are 1,200 events every year –plus 1,600 exhibitions – and nine million spectators, most of whom are women. This mass of humanity is now about to get on the move again, weather permitting, because it’s that time of year. Piazzas and loggias around Italy will fill with writers, philosophers, musicians, scientists, actors and architects, not

Innocent Infringement Defense May Work for RIAA Victim - Fines still high but symbolizes setback for RIAA

There is a college student in Texas who has been battling RIAA in one of the organization’s lawsuits against copyright infringement. The student was found guilty of illegal filesharing and downloads through Kazaa when she was just 16. She has pled guilty to illegal downloads but has asserted an “innocent infringement” defense alleging that she didn’t know that she was doing anything illegal. RIAA fought the defense with the argument that there are copyright notices on the CDs sold in stores and therefore that she should have known that she was violating copyright laws. The courts have ruled against RIAA in this instance. This doesn’t mean that all is good for the filesharer; the fine could still be as much as $200 per infringement. However, it remains a notable setback for RIAA which now needs to decide whether to accept the plea or go fo

Saying goodbye to a beloved cat

Today is a really sad day for me as I have to bring my tongue-cancer-sick kitty to the vet to be put to sleep this evening. It's such a hard decision to make as she's gone downhill in a blink of a second, but the last thing we want is to have her suffer by starving. I adopted Chloe almost 7 seven years ago, when I was living by myself in a studio in Manhattan. Chloe was the best companion for me -- she's mellow and could handle being by her self for long stretches while I was at work, but she also loves affection. She'd greet me by the door when I came home and just gave so much love -- I was never lonely. She literally never swats at you or bites when you go to pet or kiss her. She's a little love bug, that Chloe. Two years ago, I had to let her go in a way because Dan was moving here and is super allergic to cats.

Modder Adds Working Touchscreen to PSP

PSP modder jube808 has equipped his PSP with a DIY touchscreen, as part of his efforts to add features he feels Sony dropped the ball on with his beloved handheld.
