PSP Hacks: Tips & Tools for Your Mobile Gaming and Entertainment Handheld (Hacks)
Sure, it\'s just what you\'ve been clamoring for: an ultra slick, portable version of the most popular console gaming system in the world. But Sony\'s new PlayStation Portable (PSP) isn\'t just a handheld gaming device.
Beyond its killer graphics and spectacular widescreen LCD for unparalleled game play, it also sports wireless connectivity and a variety of multimedia features, including video, music, and digital photography. Your wildly versatile, endlessly powerful PSP practically begs you to hack and repurpose it to your liking.
To save you the trouble and show you how to make the PSP do more than you ever imagined--and more than Sony ever intended--PSP Hacks is one succinct volume of 50 of the coolest, most useful, up-to-the-minute hacks for this amazing device. You\'ll learn how to open your PSP\'s hardware and what to safely plug into it. You\'ll explore and put to good use every hidden feature of the device. You\'ll be able to move all sorts of multimedia onto your PSP and find ways to extend its wireless capabilities. And you\'ll find out how to get the very best experience out of online game play.
With PSP Hacks, you can accomplish a whole lot more than good gaming on the PSP. You\'ll quickly learn to surf the Web with a PSP, chat in IRC, and use the PSP to read web comics, ebooks, and RSS feeds. Other expert tips and tools allow you to sync an address book to your PSP, watch UMD movies, fool iTunes into thinking the PSP is an iPod Shuffle, and much more.
The innovative hacks, tweaks, and how-tos in this essential guide make it easy to customize your PSP, take full advantage of features, capabilities, and functionality far beyond what\'s listed in the PSP user manual, and make your PSP perform countless tricks that only an all-in-one portable entertainment unit as remarkable and revolutionary as this one could.
Customer Review: As the author of this book...
...I\'m a bit biased, but having seen the competition in bookstores, I can honestly say that this book packs more hacks per page with more details and more interesting projects than anything else I\'ve seen. The book is a good balance between beginning level bits explaining how to get the most out of regular use of the PSP, troubleshooting problems with the PSP, peripheral hacks explaining how to build your own case for the PSP or an articulating stand for the PSP complete with AC adapter, hacks that will let you share one UMD disk among several friends (either for individual free play or to share a wireless game) and play games over the Internet with a long-distance friend, and more advanced hacks, like full disassembly and reassembly instructions, instructions for adding an external wifi antenna to boost your PSP\'s wireless range, and even programming your own home brew code or building and programming an infrared peripheral interface. If you like your PSP and you like tinkering, you should buy my book. It\'s 281 pages of useful tips, tricks, and hacks written by myself and contributors like Phillip Torrone and Seth Fogie. Check it out.
