Oh deary me, are things getting from bad to worse for my PSP; Dark Alex, one of the top PSP hacker/homebrew developer has call it quits.
Here's what Dark Alex had to say:
Bye, scene.
I've decided to cease OE development, and leave PSP scene.
The reasons are various.
One of them is the time it consumes, which i'm losing from other things.
The other is related to my security. I didn't like Sony menaces to PS3 hackers.
I think it is better to leave now rather than end paying the consequences.
I wonder is it similar to what happen to Booster, developer of the other great PSP contribution DevHook; when Sony was breathing down their necks and it just wasn't stirring up heat if it's better to wait it out. I hope he's just taking a nice break and add updates every now and then, I fear if he had pushed on that $ony would have treaten legal action and kill off all future possibilty of updates from DAx.
He will missed that's for sure.

My PSP hasn't felt this cold in my hands.
Thank you very much DAx for squeezing so much potential out of the PSP, enjoy your (permanent) break.
