The next firmware update for your PSP, 6.20, is now live and available to download, and adds a bit of functionality that owners of the handheld will definitely appreciate, such as support for the Digital Comics Reader, as well as extended video and photo functionality.

You can read through the list of additions thanks to the PSP 6.20 update below:

Digital Comics Reader

– PlayStation Network Digital Comics is a new service launching in December. It will allow you to download hundreds of classic and new comics from the PlayStation Store and read them page by page or frame by frame on your PSP system.

Firmware update (v6.20) includes the Digital Comics reader application, which you’ll find under a new section called “Extras” on the XMB.

Please note, the comic reader is an additional download; once you’ve loaded (v6.20) onto your system, simply click on the comic reader icon under “Extras” to download it to your PSP. Visit www.playstationcomics.com for more information.

In addition, you’ll be able to try out a free digital comic sample from the service soon.

Export video/photo playlists

– This is a new feature that allows you to export your video and photo playlists from your PC to your PSP system through Media Go.

Download the latest version of Media Go (v1.3) for this and a few additional enhancements.
