Alright, so I just want to confirm everything to make sure I understand this properly. Correct me if anything is wrong with the following:
I'm going to need at the very least two batteries. One is modded to boot into Service Mode (or a Datel Tool Battery) which will never be used again after firmware is completely updated, and the other is a regular battery that is to be used after any firmware flashing is complete.
I'm also going to need a Memory Stick Pro Duo to make a "Magic Memory Stick" out of. And supposedly this has to be at least 64MB and no more than 4GB (somebody explain why it can't be over 4 gigs, this I'm not sure about.) Also, if my assumption is correct, this "Magic Memory Stick" can be formatted and used as a regular stick after the firmware is up and running.
So, if my thought process is correct, I need to make the Magic Memory Stick first, which holds the firmware installation files and such. Then I need to pop in a modded battery pack (Pandora's Battery or Datel Tool Battery, which are the same) and boot up from the memory stick to get the firmware on the PSP. Once that's done, I use the PSP to format the "Magic Memory Stick" and put whatever else I want on it. At the same time, I can take out the modified battery and store that in a safe place somewhere and use the regular battery from now on.
Does this sound right? Or am I missing something important?

ahhh...so i see. Any more updates on how i can use downloaded games for my PSP slim? I just bought a new PSP myself, last week and i was thinking how safe it is to hack using the said methods. UMD`s here are expensive, and i think it will be a lot cheaper if i could just play downloaded games and save it on my memory stick. And is it possible to return it to version 3.9 if i use the said firmware?..thanks, sorry for the disturbance..onegaishimasu!
Jam it back in, in the dark.
