A the risk of sounding like an lazzy @ss, I'm proposing to lend my bricked psp (somehow this time the downgrading when bad.. no idea why) to any dev who can repair it and need to to some extra hardware to test their homebrew application.
I'm from belgium and I dind't find any unbricking service near me, plus i'm short on money theses days... Anyway the deal is that you can use it as long a you need but no longer than a year (duh!) depending your time.
I'm aware that it's an unorthodox request but I'm sure we can both profit from this exchange. my psp's been bricked for 3 month now and I'm used not to play with it but it breacks my heart to have it in this condition. If someone can repair it but also profit from it, I think both side could satisfied. So if you're interested feel free to PM.
And If you feel that thread shouldn't be in this psp developpement forum, feel free to deleted it, just don't flame, burn, or kill me :).
cheers, djakku
