Sony released a firmware upgrade for PSP earlier today, bringing the version to 2.6.

The new PSP firmware (version 2.60) offers RSS newsfeed support, WMA-format playback support, and Chinese-language options for the Web browser. The new firmware also adds a volume control to the LocationFree TV player’s control panel, so users that stream media through the PSP can finally adjust their volume. Sony says the firmware upgrade also includes the ability to download “copyright-protected video data” directly to the PSP’s Memory Stick Duo.  We’re not really sure what “copy protected video” Sony is referring to (maybe from iTunes or a future Sony video download store?).
