TPWW on my PSP

Surfing the web on your psp seems like the cool thing to do these days. So behold, TPWW on my PSP...

(would've had more pics, but my site is still being retarded)

can you type and all? and does it have an mp3 player and stuff

Xero 03-28-2005 08:40 PM
I'm assuming that you need to have a wireless router or be in a hot spot to get online, right? Also, does it come with it's own browser?

AareDub 03-28-2005 08:46 PM
Yea, I have a wireless network here at the house. It does not come with it's own browser however. Getting online is done by using an exploit in Wipeout Pure. I thought people would be more interested in this thread, but I guess most people don't realize what a feat it was lol.

@Assman
Yea it plays mp3s, but it the speakers on it suck. The headphones have do have amazing sound though. Oh, and the way you type is similar to a cell phone. It has a number pad on screen with letters on the numbers.

So, in other words, if you typed the message above me on your PSP, you'd have been either really stupid or really bored?

Bad Company 03-28-2005 09:20 PM
Very Cool.

It hasn't been released here yet though :(

Yea. I was going to make a very short post on here from my psp, but seeing as the internet thing is just an exploit it's VERY buggy. That first page with the login thing was as far as I could get.

Ipod speakers work great on the PSP however. Learned that at work yesterday :D And yes, browsing the net on the PSP is a lot easier than Sony thought it would be

AareDub 03-28-2005 10:57 PM
Yea, I'm hoping now that Sony will realize this and just release a browser for it. They may have been planning to anyway, but I think they should do it either way now.

They've actually been working on a browser since the Jap release. They've got a browser, word processor, spreadsheet and TV tuner software set to release. No date is set, but the program is done with just some bugs to work out.

Nice.

Shaggy 03-29-2005 12:29 AM
lol....all the hype that people were talking about this and yet it hasnt sold out anywhere that I have gone. Every store that I have been to seems to have them.

It might be pretty cool to get on TPWW with that if it worked right. Sad thing is that I just wouldnt have the patience to sit back and press buttons for 30 minutes to make a 10 sentence paragraph.

Gouda 03-29-2005 12:32 AM
They've got a PSP keyboard too. Kinda like those ones for a Palm Pilot.

DS 03-29-2005 12:34 AM
Just because it isn't sold out doesn't mean it didn't sell like it was suppose to. Sony just put out enough.

Gonzo 03-29-2005 12:38 AM
Sold out anywhere I've went. Wal-Mart only allowed 1 per customer because of high demand. I wouldn't say that its not selling well.

We sold out (us as a district I mean, 75 stores) of every single one of the unit we recieved.

SuperSlim 03-29-2005 09:26 AM
don't forget the rocket high prices as well.

@ the Wal-Mart here, they've still got something like 30 units. I asked the of the cashiers (Used to work with her when I was 15).

Gamestop, also has a few. Less than the 30 at Wal-Mart, but not bad for something that's "selling well." GS in Keene is similar. I don't know about other shops, because I'm not specifically looking at sales figures.

Silent 03-29-2005 11:57 AM
I really want a PSP, but I'm about $235 short at this point. :p

It's not going to sell out in backwater shit towns, where 95% of the population is working just above minimum.

AareDub 03-30-2005 11:13 AM
It's sold out like a mofo here. The GameStops around here already have several reservations on their next shipment.

Team Sheep 03-30-2005 11:31 AM
Anyone know when that baby's out in the UK?

Tornado 03-30-2005 02:20 PM
Sony said they've pushed the UK Launch back "several months".

Team Sheep 03-30-2005 03:57 PM
That's stupid on their part. Most people will probably get fed up of waiting now and just go for the DS.

AareDub 03-31-2005 01:45 AM
I heard that the UK release was pushed back so they could put more out in the US. I know when I was still working at the store we were already taking reservations on the 2nd shipment, but then we found out that both shipments would arrive on the launch day.

If people get the DS instead of waiting for a PSP they will be sorely disappointed when the PSP finally does come out.

Howabout round here, where the average yearly is above 30K?

LOL

People are going to be severely disappointed if they settle for a DS when half the systems stocked failed to sell.

YOUR Hero 04-03-2005 11:29 PM
That's pretty cool. Not sold on these things though.

Yeah I heard that also. We sold out at work pretty quickly, and people have been getting a DS when they hear it's gonna be June/July till we see the PSP in the UK.
