I hesitated about where I was gonna post this, but I hope I did the right thing when I posted it here. I'm getting my PSP back anyday now, since I borrowed it to a friend for the last two months or so. I remember reading abut shells for the PSP, with names like PSIX, PSP OS and Artillery and others I've forgotten about. I'm more or less wondering which one I should get, or if I should even get one at all. I have a few other questions, and if anyone would/could answer please give it a shot.
I go under the estimate that the PSP shells are running at 333mhz. Is that true? Does it drain more battery life than using no shell at all? Does the shell have support for say, xvid and divx, so I won't have to encode all my movies to mpeg4, or have to rely on several other homebrewapps for xvid and divx. I know that several shells support gif, jpg and png. Since I still have the 1.5 firmware I can't watch those without the need of a homebrew app. Can I listen to my mp3s at the same time I'm reading manga?
What other benefits is there for having a shell?
