The 2.0 version of the firmware was released today. Chief among the long list of feature upgrades is a web browser. You cannot obtain the update via the built-in utility (because it has not been released in the US yet) but you can download it, move it to your PSP, and install it. The firmware also works on US PSPs. I've upgraded myself, and I must say the web browser is HAWT.
