For the guys still wondering how the PSP-Devolution modchip will handle, we've picked a news bit that should help you along. PSP mod guru jrfhoutx has announced that he's going to be reviewing the Devolution, to be released in segments.

This video will be the first part of the said review, and will begin with jrfhoutx installing the said USB-JTAG Programmer into the PlayStation Portable. Just in case the video title gave you the wrong ideas: jrfhoutx is letting the viewers know that this is not to be used as an installation guide for their own modchip. That's all for the moment - we'll let you guys know in case the modder brings up the rest of the review vids. Happy viewing!

Kudos to Foo foo for telling us about this release!

We'll be introducing another PSP mod today, created by AcidMods resident jrfhoutx. The mod in question is a set of Push Activated Face Buttons which, as described, lights up the PSP's four primary face buttons by a set of internally mounted LEDs. Here's a video demonstrating how this mod works:

In case you missed it, the PSP appears to be clad in Camy Pro Gear's newer PSP faceplates. One problem jrfhoutx reports during the attempt involves the different MCD ratings the different LED colors had - the modder plans to resolve this in the near future. jrfhoutx further credits TR4G- for giving him the idea, and F00 f00 and CyberProt for helping him further along. Stick around in case we pick up more news on this mod (and hopefully a tutorial).
