Journal Journal: WGA Bites M$ Partners.
Microsoft partners are complaining about the difficulty of making Office 2007 work for them because of a combination of "trialware" and WGA. No relief is in sight for them.
Comment Swap memory sticks? (Score 4, Insightful) 176
This seems highly inconvienant.. I'm not going to play the swap-trick on a car trip or on the bus, it just seems impractical.
Nice work on finding this flaw though, but.. I'll wait until something else comes out that will let me run a homebrew app off of the same memory stick on 1.5*
Note also that Sony will probably be requiring firmware updates with future games, so unless you want to dedicate your PSP to homebrew, you're kinda outta luck until a non-'swaploit' comes out.
We got to find a way to control the firmware on the PSP before much is accomplished.. Reflashing to 1.00 on US units would make homebrew a reality, but then there is the game firmware update issue. To solve this, maybe someone could create a 'grub'/'lilo' type system that could boot firmware 1.00 or 1.5+.
