News that will surely have Sony cursing at the next baord meeting, news comes in that Datel have developed a new battery that allows the new PSP-3000 into service mode, opening up the ability to customise the firmware the latest PSP can run.

The Datel device is called Lite Blue, and is going to retail for $29.99. Unless of course this is some elaborate April fools joke that has come late. Or early. In which case forget I mentioned it. But the news is up on Engadget, so I have a small amount of hope that its not a big wind up.

If this is true, I wonder what software was used to develop the new device, and how have they managed to get it out before the PSP homebrew community managed to develop a similar device?
