I'm interested in a PSP but completed know nothing about it. I've gone tru the FAQ at post #1 and would like to ask few questions.

#1
What is the difference purchasing from console shops instead of purchasing from Sony Style Malaysia?

#2
What is a modded PSP that console shops sells? Why are they not warrantied? What is the purpose of a modded PSP?

#3
What does region do/mean?

#4
PSP got wifi. How do i type alphabets when i surf the net?

#5
When i build my PC i have basic knowledge about PC and how to troubleshoot. Do i need some basic knowledge how to handle a PSP to own one? Like is there command or scripts that i need to mess with if my only intention with the PSP is to play games and maybe surf the net?

#6
Where do most LYN surfer buy their UMD games from? The games selection seems limited.

#7
Is there instant messenger(IM) for PSP?

#8
Will there be a new PSP soon? Do YOU GUYS recommend me to purchase the PSP without having a game desired? Till now I only play computer fps games so no favourites

Thanks.

The only difference PSP from Sony Style and PSP outside is the firmware right? Can custom firmware PSP update to original firmware? If can, then original firmware PSP is exactly the same with Sony Style PSP?
