ENTERTAINMENT gear maker Sony is to give its Play Station Portable (PSP) access to the world wide wibbley web by adding a browser and wireless access.

The browser will be offered as an add on that will allow wireless internet access on the device, and a browser so that gamers can have a look at the news and check emails between games.

The upgrade, Sony Firmware 2.0 will also give increased data security on the device and enhance digital photo-sharing and video playback capabilities.

Users will need a least 16MB of free space on your PSP's Memory Stick Pro Duo card to download and install the firmware update.

According to a press release Sony hopes that the internet browser and other added functionality and will "enhance the user experience" beyond the "unprecedented portable entertainment already provided by PSP". Well what do you expect? It was a press release recounted here.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
