Web Browsing Coming to PSPs in US

A software update originally made available to Japanese PSP owners that added Web browsing and video capabilities to the unit will be made available August 12, according to sources. While Sony is not commenting on any differences between the updates, it is expected that they would be quite similar.

According to ExtremeTech, users who do not wish to download the update will still be able to get the Web browser, as it will come bundled with some yet-unannounced game titles this fall. Capabilities for Web browsing are already available to players who had the game "Wipeout Pure," and instructions to exploit the software to view any Web site can be found on the Internet.
