    Im getting a psp slim soon and I havent modded a psp before so could someone point me in the right direction to a good noob friendly tutorial to mod this thing and get the latest cfw on it.

    I dont have any specifics on the slim yet other than its like a 2000 model.

    If it helps I have a psp 1001 that is already modded with the latest firmware.

    Thank You!

    You need to be careful buying a slim at this point because if you buy a PSP3000 by mistake then you will be the proud new owner of a psp that cant run custom firmware yet. Theres not any major benefit of having a slim right now and with the potential for sony comin out with a brand new model this year or next its probably not worth upgrading yet.

    BUT if you do get a slim 2000 version, its as simple as using a pandora battery (phat or slim battery makes no difference) and a memory stick with dark alex's latest version of DC which you can get from www.dark-alex.org

    yes it is a 2000.

    I should probably stress the words "tutorial" and "Noob friendly"

    Thanks for the info though.

    If you're buying a new Slim, get one that is manufactured earlier. You have better chances of it having a hackable motherboard. Read this post to help you choose the right Slim.

    http://psx-scene.com/forums/452005-post2.html (is there a way to identify which PSP not to buy?)

    In Addition, all Slims are the PSP-200x models. The PSP-3000s are the 300x models.

    thank guys, ill let you know my results. I wont know what processor or firmware it has untill it is in hand. had I known I probably would have went straight for that dax bundle, looks like I might have to resell.

    btw for the 200X models how recently did they start make the unhackable versions. wanting just wondering becuase the one I bought said it was like new and still had the og box, but that could mean it just sat on a shelf for a long time.
