Many people are interested in running game iso's and homebrew code on their PSP's.
Sony's official firmware will not allow this.
To use homebrew programs and play iso games, an official firmware needs to first be downgraded to V1.5.
Once a PSP is at Version 1.5, the best and easiest way to play and load games iso's, is to install an 'OE' firmware. 'OE' stands for 'open edition' and indicates that it is a 'hacked' firmware.
To play the very latest games, you need to have the very latest version of an 'OE' firmware.
