Discuss even more about everything PSP & Playstation related on our forums!

Given the fact that we live in a connected world, where access to the internet and various online services has become practically indispensable for a certain category of devices, a large number of the various portable gadgets that arrive on the market nowadays tend to enable, in some sort, such functionalities. That’s also the case with Sony’s most recent portable gaming console, the PSP Go, whose latest firmware update (v6.10) will enable quite a few interesting features, including here support for tethering via Bluetooth.

All in all, we can really say that PSP Go owners will have a blast with this firmware update, which, however, is not yet available, albeit the company does promise that it should arrive “soon.”

Hence, by applying the respective firmware update, PSP Go owners will enjoy the ability to use a Bluetooth mobile device, such as a mobile phone, as a modem to connect their PSP system to the Internet. This means that when you’re not located close to a WiFi spot, you have another way to get on the Internet via a Bluetooth mobile device.

As mentioned above, this will not be the only important improvement brought about by firmware version 6.10. For example, another cool new feature will provide access to the SensMe channels, a music application for PSP (borrowed from the Walkman family) that uses Sony’s proprietary 12 Tone Analysis technology to evaluate music tracks that have been imported from the Media Go application.

And since we’re on the subject, we also have to mention that the Media Go application (v1.2) will be updated with a new look and enhanced functionality. Those of you not familiar with MediaGo should know that we’re talking about a software app for PCs that allows users to organize and transfer music, photos and videos between one’s PC and the PSP. It also permits users to access the PlayStation Store and to purchase, backup and restore PSP games.
