It turns out that Sony\’s next firmware update for the PSP has owners in quite a troth. They\’ve already unveiled a web browser, that\’s actually better than most PDA web browsers. Now there are rumors about surrounding the release of PIM (personal information management), email, note taking, drawing and other applications. Of course Sony hasn\’t released anything official yet, but they\’ve shown a great interest in expanding the feature set of the PSP.
