PSP Homebrew coder Mr305 dropped by the QJ.Net Forums earlier to announce the release of WIFI Power Saver Plugin v1. According to the author this homebrew plugin was designed as a quick and simple way to turn off the PSP's WiFi function with a few easy button-presses.
This was designed to help PSP owners using their unit's web browser to make the most out of their PSP's battery life by turning off unneeded systems. This first release has been reported to work on 3.40 OE-A, and does not appear to conflict with other plugins.
As Mr305 states, "In the NetFront Web Browser, in case you haven't noticed this, even with WLAN Power Save on, the PSP remains connected to Access Point even after page is fully loaded, which greatly draws the battery power." To turn off your WiFi, press Down + Square. Clicking on site links and searching will reactivate your WiFi connection.
Installation instructions should be available at Mr305's release thread over at the QJ.Net Forums - head on over in case you need other related details. Enjoy the download!
