BBC Talks To PSP Hackers

TOO EASYThe BBC has posted an interesting profile on three of the key hacker teams responsible for exploiting the faults of Sony's PlayStation Portable, enabling the formation of an established homebrew and customization scene. Oh, and there's that whole piracy thing.

The Beeb spoke with hacking wizards Dark Alex and Noobz Team's David Court about why they spend so much of their free time finding ways around the Sony developed security that allows enthusiasts to run SNES emulators and boot PSP games from the Memory Stick.

While both denounce piracy, highlighting the open-ended possibilities of their work, both admit piracy is an issue but that it should be up to the individual to decide how their hardware will serve them.

Me? I just want something that will serve as my porn-on-the-go device, but I still appreciate their efforts.
