So this might not be all the facts and features of the PSP 4.0 update when it comes out and so far from Sony, its been dubbed under “Soon” but it looks like the PSP is taking one more step towards web efficiency as there will be a Google Search built directly into the PSP’s XMB, allowing you to just search for content while the Google algorithms take care of the keywords. Your search history will also be up to 20 previous sites to help speed up your access to older content. Of course a required Wi-Fi connection will be needed for all web related things. Also being introduced is the capability....

That's a good idea, a shame though that the PSP browser itself isn't so brilliant. Is the PSP limited to B-band wifi? It's awfully slow compared to the iPod Touch.

Nice to see but, imho, doing the web on my PSP was more a proof-of-concept thing. I did it to say I did it, and I prefer not to ever have to do it again.:p

Yeah, it's a last place I'd really want to surf the net on really.

I'd rather they update the RSS app and let us view text feeds too. I really don't see the point of the current RSS app. Plain old POP3 email would be nice too.

Radio function is awesome though. Really like what they've done there.
