PSP Summer Homebrew Coding Contest
quickjump writes "PSP Updates and Lik-Sang yesterday kicked off their second PSP coding contest, the Summer Homebrew Competition. Programmers now have 45 days to submit a new program, to be screened by people such as Fanjita and others, and then put up for a popular vote to determine the 3 winners with over $500 in PSP prizes, including a 4GB Datel drive, Blaze TV adapter, faceplates, battery packs, cases, a 1GB memory stick and more!"
Fanjita is a programmer who used exploits in the 2.00 firmware and 2.01 - 2.60 firmwares for PSP to allow for an "eboot loader" (a way to run homebrew games via the hack) to run.
