- Region code
- Minor changes to the webbrowser to help with the display of the language on a small screen (unconfirmed)
There are to my knowlage, no cool new fetures. Even the gps (only in Japan right now) will fuction with every other PSP on the market, US and EU.

The update makes no difference to the region. |

Apparently there was some sort of difference to the flashing method between that and the one we got. Nothing major, though. | |
