Same thing happened to me. I think it's a bug in the 2.6 update. Or it could just be those Sony programmers scaring the hell out of us for their own amusment. I turned it off to (thinking it was bricked), but luckily my PSP was updated successfully. Probably because it was 99% complete...

Ok what does it mean if your PSP gets 'bricked'? How does it get bricked? Also, I have 2.1 version, should I update to 2.6? Also, is it better to update it by using a umd or by internet? I don't know how you do it by internet because I havn't updated it yet.
