PSP firmware 4.00 - now with Google Search

by Jenni Lada on Jun 16, 2008 at 07:14 PM

PSPsGoogle is everywhere, and it is only growing. Its next step is video game consoles/handhelds - but wait! It’s already on its way! The official Playstation.Blog has announced that version 4.00 of the PSP firmware is on the way, and it will include a Google internet search option in the XrossMediaBar (XMB).

So if you want to search for or see a webpage, you won’t have to go to the PSP browser and type in “www.google.com” or whatever the web address is. You can just go to the Google Search icon, type in what you want to find and then search. For people who absolutely hate having to type in web addresses in the PSP’s browser, this new addition will make things marginally easier. It also remembers your last 20 searches, so you can search through those instead of re-entering information.

It also will allow users to adjust the viewing speed of videos on the PSP’s memory stick. You’ll be able to speed up or slow down the video. Not exactly as interesting as the Google addition, but I guess it might be handy. Maybe.
