Also comes with (bizarrely enough) a copy of Spiderman 2 on UMD, but only for the first 1 million units. Weird inclusion I guess.

Why? It is a hugely successful movie by Sony.

they hacked the psp to run: games from memory sticks, divx video, run mail, chat program, web browser and so on. i didn't watch the whole video, i just linked the video from the site that was taken down i think.

could i ask what i just watched?

edit: too late.
damn, those hacks sound pretty cool. would have to organize some 1gig memory sticks and throw some divx movies on there.
would be cool to get it to sync, say the last month's worth of, mail messages too.

It's just not what I expected, that's all. I didn't think they'd throw in a UMD film. Then again I didn't expect the omission of the Standard Pack.

Also it mentioned a "cleaning cloth", I didn't get one of those with my Jap Value Pack
