PSP firmware 1.50 will let gamers to play homebrew, downloaded via website's, basically allow gamer to play games from memoryStick.
PSP fimware 2.0 and above, have better browser and all the function.
But the thing is that, for the newer games, PSP need higher firmware to play it, is that right?
if so, means that sooner or later the all the gamer will have to install newer firmware and no more playing game from MemoryStick?
note* i got SE w810i phone, so mp3 it's not an adv, and i dun really interested in watching movie at that tiny screen.
i just want PSP for the games, it's is worth for me to still buy a PSP?

Hi...
Well I'm happy that you have finally decided to buy a PSP, most people have a hard time deciding whether they want a DS, PSP, PS3 or Xbox 360.
To answer your 1.50 or X.XX (higher) firmware versions. I will try, to the best of my ability, to keep it simple.
The first thing is the budget, how much are you willing to spend for your PSP? They now have a modchip for the PSPs called the "Undiluted Platinum" (search for it online). It retails at around $100... and once installed can switch firmwares back and forth.
However IF budget is a problem, I would suggest you just go for the 1.50... that will give you access to over 250 ISOs, and newer games still might support 1.50 for some time to come.
Your last question... IT IS worth it! I have a PSP (bought it a year ago) and it still never ceases to amaze me.
Peace out,
LFI.

you can download something that tricks your psp into thinking it has later firmware but im not sure if this is legal... also people have brought out a type of homebrew that you can play via your internet browser on the latest firmware so either way it doesn't matter unless you play "backed up" games.

The latest versions are always better and expand what your PSP is capable of. Games such as GTA Vice City Stories need at least 2.50 (i think) to run. The current version is I think 3.03. If you want the best of both worlds, I think you will need to buy a second PSP. :(
