Coinciding with today’s PSN maintenance window,  Sony has released PSP firmware 6.39. As you’d expect, this update brings the PSP up to speed with the recent security enhancements made to PSN. This means users will be forced to change their password when connecting, if you haven’t already done so on the PS3.

Additionally, Sony Network Entertainment VP Eric Lempel notes that “system software stability during use of some features will be improved” after applying the latest update. Obviously, nothing to get excited over here, but that’s to be expected from a security update.
