Tethering on PSP Go

vineetpatel · 01-10-2009, 9:42 AM

The new firmware update allows the PSP Go (not the older PSP's) to be tethered to a bluetooth mobile device, such as a mobile phone, as a modem to connect your PSP system to the internet.

How cool is that...

Have you tried it?? Is it easy to set up?

What sort of download speeds are you getting??

I've read so many negative comments about the PSP Go, but I may get one now that tethering is possible.

No not yet, should have the PSP by the end of the week but I'm sure someone else will post their experience with it before then.

Can't believe they didn't mention this sooner. Seems like a really strong selling point especially if I can play online games on the train/bus

Not to mention streaming PlayTV from anywhere

Go! was the most unsure Iv been purchasing a new gadget but with the game pricing now up and new features such as this one I'm more than pleased with my choice.

Have you had a chance to try this tethering feature?
I'm really interested to see if this works well.
