The U.P. (Undiluted Platinum) is a flash replacement system for the PSP™ which allows the use of previous flash updates or custom firmware builds, opening up the possibility to run unsigned homebrew code on even the latest PSP systems. The U.P. contains 32MB NAND flash which is programmable from the PC via a high speed USB connection, using our user friendly software. You may boot the PSP from either its onboard flash or the flash contained on the U.P; the flash which is used is determined by a button press as the PSP is powered on (U.P. flash is used by default, hold L1 to use the PSP onboard flash). Since U.P. provides a secondary flash which the PSP can boot from, it can even be used to restore a PSP which has been "bricked". Every effort has been made to make our flash updater software, which will be freely available for download, both as easy to use and reliable as possible. The software also contains diagnostics which can be used by installers to determine if an installation has been successful or not.

The U.P. has been designed to minimize installation difficulty and effort. A FPC (flexible printed circuit) cable is included which routes the essential signals from the PSP motherboard to the U.P. main board and U.P. USB connector. Copper enamel wire is included, which will provide the connection between the FPC cable and the motherboard signal traces. The FPC cable also helps by reducing the mechanical stress placed on the solder points, making a U.P. modified PSP shock resistant which is important for handheld systems. Installation aids are included, and installation diagrams for all PSP hardware revisions will be available for download, together with flasher software application, from our reseller's websites. More about installation together with install pictures closer to release.

The FPC cable end to which the USB connector board attaches is routed into the battery compartment and sits above the battery. The battery cover can be replaced after flash updating and the cable remains safely in the compartment until the next update is required, whereupon the USB connector can be clipped in place within a few seconds. This means that the U.P. is completely contained within the PSP under normal usage and avoids any unsightly external modifications to your PSP. PSP is after all portable, let’s keep it that way!

In order to maximise the benefits that U.P. can provide its users, we have decided to take an open source approach with U.P and will be releasing source code for any software we release as well as full documentation for the U.P. hardware interface - including information on how to control U.P. from within PSP programs. This will allow anybody to create software which can take advantage of what U.P. has to offer. We have also sent a few prototype units away to some of the scene's best software hackers in order to give them a headstart at working on custom flash replacements - cant wait to see what people will come up with!

It will be priced at around 75 Euros, or $90. A bit high, if you ask me. But completely worth it. I guess this is enough to silence the skeptics. And making the PSP 'brick-proof'? Wow, that's something which will excite everyone. This would obviously lead to more hacks since the hackers can experiment without fearing bricking their PSP.

traduccion en resumen:

-Permitira scene en cualquier firmware
-Traera una memoria NAND de 32 megas igual q la de psp, por lo q podremos guardar otro firmware distinto dentro de ella
-Al tener 2 firmwares, se evita el brickeo de las psp, ya q se puede restaurar uno con el otro
-Permitira firmwares "caseros" creados por los usuarios
-Encaja perfectamente en el interior de PSP, haciendola mas resistente a los golpes
-El firmware se podra modificar, cambiar, restaurar desde el PC a traves del cable USB
-Traera diversos programas de ayuda, como de diagnostico para el PC para decirte si has instalado bien el firmware, etc
-Sirve para PSP de cualquier region o version
-Cuando enciendas la PSP se cargara el firmware q tengas metido en el chip, pero si pulsas L1 se cargara el q tengas metido en la consola
-Incluye tambien codigo libre ya q las primeras versiones se enviaran a maestros hack de la scene para q vayan creando sus propios firmwares
-Poco consumo de bateria
-El precio, 75 euros

el mod_chip solo por 75 euros es una ganga
