Sony Releases Firmware 4.01… Custom Firmware 4.00M33 end of this Week… *Updated*

Update: You can now grab firmware 4.01 via Network Update or from us.

Is something fishy going on? Coming real soon, in the next few hours actually, Sony plans to release firmware 4.01. Eric Lempel says –

• Display of search results under Internet Search has been improved for certain languages.
• Playback of video content under Video has been improved for certain file types.

Hrm… I bet.

But not only that — some related firmware news… Dark_AleX shared a few details concerning custom firmware 4.00M33. It’s basically a “behind-the-scenes” update. Save state support and in-XMB recovery will likely follow, perhaps in 4.00M33-2.

Is Sony trying to hide something? Will Sony’s unexpected behaviour hinder Dark_AleX’s tentative release date of this week’s end? Will Dark_AleX release 4.01M33?! Tune in tomorrow — same PSP-hacks time, same PSP-hacks channel.
