psp wireless chipset - sourcecode info

I am starting work on a new project, but dont get my PSP for another week.

Anyone have info on the wireless chipset in the PSP? I'm under the impression that it is either a Marvell Libertas 88W8000G or 88W8510 chipset, or similar from Marvell.

The only reference to what is in it so far is from Marvells website:

"--Morales pointed to Marvell's big splash at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January when it announced that its WLAN chip is powering Sony's PlayStation Portable as a significant win for Marvell that has propelled the company's consumer WLAN momentum.

Is there any sourcecode around dealing with manipulating the wireless chip directly?


Am I correct in saying there has been NO homebrew with the wifi yet?
I'd like to hear from anyone who has done research on it.

What I need is the equivalent control like the *nix commands iwconfig, iwpriv

I want to be able to put the card into monitor mode.

I have already seen all that you mention and it is just dealing with using the PSP's already configured wireless settings. I did alot of googling and link following before I posted.

The app I am writing is called PSPstumbler and is a cross between kismet and netstumbler.

I hope that you can see that the current sourcecode around isn't as helpful to this kind of app as it would be to a game or other comms program.

Thanks for the replies though!
