Do you need the magic memory stick thing if you buy a TOOL battery?

Yes. The two things work together in tandem.
The magic memory stick has the files on it needed to overwrite the official firmware on the PSPs internal memory. The Tool battery bypasses the startup sequence and forces the PSP to run the files on the memory stick rather than flash. The files are created in such a way, so that an update commences and then writes the new firmware to the internal flash memory. When the update is complete, you remove the battery, replace your normal one, and CFW is installed.

hope that answers ur question
