ok, im totally lost with all this HBL, HEN etc. I have a system already on 5.50 Gen D i think it is with prom 4. Is it worth moving up to one of the 6.xx's and if so how do i go about doing it. I dont due much in the way of homebrew, just mostly games (iso/cfo) and ps1 games. Thanks
I don't think it's that cut and dry....the best advice for that question is to tell people to pick up each console and feel the weight, size and view the screen differences. Many people find the better, more solid, construction of the 1000 outweighs the disadvantage of TV out (plus IR can mess with people's heads) and the RAM whilst talked about a lot is a minor quibble when playing from MS.
The biggest issue with the 1000 is the d pad being set too low and requiring a relatively easy self mod to make it better. All later models of the PSP fixed this. Honestly the screen isn't that big a deal...

I left in the pandora info (because it's important), but linked to the wikipedia article so people could check other other differences, as yeah you're right there's some stuff that would only matter to some people.
EDIT: Or should I make a chart of the features?
EDIT2: Preliminary chart.

A bit confused...
The softmod-guide sticky seems to suggest that if you're on firmware above 5.03, your PSP 3000 won't be semi-hackable and, therefore, you can't load PSP/PS1 games. This FAQ, however, seems to state otherwise, as the 3000 series is listed as semi-hackable if the firmware is 6.36 or below.

The softmod sticky has a 6.35 semi-hackable section (it's the bottom one), and while some of the links are dead, I uploaded them to filetrip and posted (latest post in that thread).
6.35 PRO-B3 has proper/custom PSX/PS1 game loading now, the 6.x hacks originally didn't (it's only in the latest versions it works).
Waiting on prowler to update it.

There's a second God of War bundle pack (for the second game) that includes a 3000, so I added a note above the limited-edition chart about it.
Cut out a lot of the hacking info because we now have this guide to guide people through determining what kind of hack they need (and pointing them to the right section of the right guide).
I don't know if that will work, but I do know that using Media Go on the PC to download demos works (assuming the demos don't have new types of AP/encryption, which happens sometimes since they're a lot easier/quicker to update than UMD games).
