    I have recently noticed a lot of talk on different sites of 5.50 GEN-A. How is it different from 5.00 M33-6? Would it be better for me to run it on my PSP 1000 rather than 5.00 M33-6?
    Thanks.

    not at this point, i would wait a while till it has more plugins and more apps that have been converted for more compatabilty

    If there is nothing really special about it I will stick with my M33-6. I already have the added bonuses of OFW on my PSP 3000.

    In 5.50GEN-A you have the ps board (gay), sub-subfolders (ok), and support for new(er) games. Im on it. I dont really care for themes right now, as long as I can still play Super Metoroid

    its better in some respects but nothing too significant

    one of the things that i like about that cfw is that it takes advantage of is the sub folder support

    The thing is, I do not use sub folders almost at all. I generally do not care to have everything organized in a special folder on my PSP's or PS3. I have an iPod for music which is maybe why I do not care about sub folders on a PSP.

    exactly what he means newer games that have been released
    since 5.00 is getting a little old, some newer releases might not be compatible with 5.00, highly unlikely though

    I thought as much, but why exactly is 5.50 so important to games if it does not really change how the game is played.

    Which reminds me.... Will 5.50 M33 CFW be released?

    no 5.50 wont be relised, and it like sonys way of forcing update to avoid finding expliot on prevous firmware, they have wishful thinking

    IMO its sonys sneaky little way of making it harder for every1 to "hack" their psps especially if urs have the new motherboards

    Dark ALex says he is not planning to make 5.50 m33 since he feels that its worth skipping

    Nope, I have a 1000 that is hacked, so that motherboard is old.

    Well if an M33 won't be released in the long run, I will switch to GEN-A maybe.

    yeah but then u hav to go through the whole pandora + mms process which is annoying
    and i meant the whole motherboard thing on the new psps becuz if u update to 5.50 there is absolute no way to downgrade it bak to 5.03(cuz of the new motherboard) currently to use the chickhen R2 and 5.03 GEN-A exploit


    ive been thinkin about that too...

    I am trying out Gen-A on my Phat right now. I do not see any major differences except the Info board (useless, I have it turned off on my ps3 and OFW PSP) and the ability to access the movie store.
