Haha your right grey1.. Noobs get flamed and destroyed in other forums. Normally they would get here as well if they ask if they can run homebrew on a SONY 3.02 or 3.03 firmware :P.. And of course they would because theres no downgrader for these latest versions.
Im glad you got yourself a downgradeable PSP. You can call it both
if you downgrade you can upgrade as well. So it does not matter how you call it.
I have heard of DS getting modded but dont know how good that is compared to a PSP.
Good luck my friend! and have fun in the forums! its a really nice place you'll like it.
