TheFlow has released a major update to his VitaShell application that will please PS VitaTV owners. Starting from version 1.6, you can now mount a USB drive to your PS VitaTV as ux0. This means you don't need an expensive memory card anymore as everything is saved to your USB device. If you want to install a homebrew application or other data, you can mount the USB drive to your PC and transfer away. Due to different power requirements however, not all USB devices may work without an external power supply. Other additions are a theme selector and the ability to mount a Vita Game Card as a USB device. The full changelog is below, courtesy of @KawaiiAuroraA from wololo.
