hi, i havnt bought a psp yet, and realy, i have never used one. the price is what is keeping me from getting one, but what i wanted to know is, the new firmware to 2.0 or something gives you a browser. how do you find wifi with it? is it like netstumbler, and you can use decripted wifi access points? is it like a pocket pc, like i can download stuff to the memory stick and stuff? i just want to know what i am buying and what all i can do online with it. also, i read it has 4 megs of ram, can that be upgraded, and a better antena for the wifi.... thanks

hello,
With the 2.0, you get a browser, the ability to change your background and a couple of other stuff.

You can scan your area for Wifi hotspots, then you can enter specific information (WEP key, ip of the router etc..).

Only Java. Well, I'm not even sure it plays Java games...

Java is the only plugin installed. It can use java apps, but you can't make a PSP play apps that use the keyboard.

Flash, shockwave, and other stuff don't work...

The browser uses JavaScript, there is no support for Java. Java and JavaScript are not the same thing.
