Sony Finally Puts the PSP to good use! - Click!
Sony has seen the light finally and has allowed third-party development of the PSP--well sort of. While talking about hacking or modding the PSP is still strictly taboo (and is bannable on their message boards if discussed, a rule created by a SCEA executive), creating skins for the PSP Internet Radio Player (IRP) is a small step forward in the right direction.PSP owners who have wifi can download this application by upgrading to PSP v3.8.0 then downloading the IRP application after upgrading.
Currently, the number of internet radio stations is limited, even more so by the buearocracy that has decimated the number of online radio stations since the beginning of this decade. (Until our Patent, Trademark, and Copyright system is unFUBARed, supporting SaveNetRadio.org can help expand the selection to the PSP's IRP).
PSP's IRP currently supports Shoutcast. To expand upon this, networks like Live365, Pandora, LaunchCast, and other free Internet radio broadcasters should be added, though Live365 seems to be only other compatible broadcasting network that could be supported by the PSP's IRP.
I would like to see this service be expanded over the next few weeks, especially following the days of the Consumer Electronics Show.

Wanted: Instructions to sync a Sony Clié PEG-UX50 with Fedora Core 3 - Click!
OK, I love my new PDA (thank you, duffstuf123! ^_^), but finding instructions to syncronize such a wonderful piece of new technology has been difficult to find.Yeah, my Clié came with an installation CD and an instruction manual. The guy who sold it to me was even generous enough to include a 128MB Memory Stick. But something I had not anticipated occured: there is no instructions for syncronizing this device with Linux...yet.
PalmSource did make an announcement stating that they would develop software to syncronize PalmOS devices with the Linux operating system. KDE has a good program called KPilot to syncronize the device with programs part of their KDE PIM groupware.
However, their are some relatively simple instructions to set up Palm devices with Linux. I just have not found a common method yet. I hope to find the instructions by the end of this week and when I do find them, I will post them here at BushidoHacks.com or I'll post the link to the instructions that I have found suitable for the Sony Clié.
Stay tuned. Good news is on the way.
