by this I mean:

has most of the interesting homebrew already been done? is there anything else new that is still left to be done on the PSP?


Right now, I don't play any PSP games at all on my psp

I do however use it to read books, watch TV (via locationfree player) do some minor IM chat, surf the net a little, use it as a GPS etc etc

basically everything that it was never intended to be used for

but it's been a LOOOOONG time since I've seen something new come out of the PSP

seems most have moved over to the touch screen development

I don't want to know what you use your PSP for xD posts like these belong in your blog not here.

When I get some free time I'd love to try and make some stuff for PSP. Games, not apps.

I hear C's not too much different from Java.

You could always use gcj, which can compile Java to native code. I believe there is a version that targets the PSP. Unfortunately, it is limited to what is supported by GNU Classpath so some code may have to be rewritten if it uses unsupported features.

Would you mind linking me to this? Consider me intrigued.
