Browsing the PSP

Anyway else upgraded their PSP? I've upgraded my Euro model to 2.0 and it all works fine. The key update is the addition of a browser, allowing you to surf the net wirelessly. I've playing around with the new browser and while it's a little gimmicky at the moment, with obvious display issues, I can see the attraction, especially when sites are specially developed for it. As Keith says, the DS is still the home for gaming originality, but with the browser the PSP is finally shaping up to be the convergence device it always threatened to be. Of course, anyone who was using their PSP to play emulated/homebrew games has been shafted by this update.
