Devious is a project in the beta stage from Kevin (kid101skater; if we remember correctly, he helped with the Mario Don't Drop the PSP project) and Tarek (over at Deviant PSP). Feedback from a lot of users is that this baby will be better than IR Shell if the improvements keep on coming, but there's still a lot of things that need to be done.

Some of you may already know about this project because Devious was released a while back (October 6) and an update was released several hours later to fix some bugs. As it says on Kevin's post: "I decided to stay up all night last night and work on this. I added some great features. BIG thanks to DreaDNoughT for helping me even more getting this running and with the coding." (You might remember DreaDNoughT's HvS and other games.)

For those of you who want to beta test this, here's what's in Devious beta 0.5:

• only tested on 1.0 and 1.5 does need kernel
• MP3 player
• USB support
• options (shows battery info as of now)
• multitask (you can listen to music while doing other things)
• you can now exit features by pressing both triggers
• exit gui via start - takes a min
• a couple bugs but it will get worked out
• known bugs: sometimes crashes when going back to MP3 or USB for a second time
