First PSX emulator for the PSP
psx-p

Finally, you can play Playstation games on the PSP.  I mean, it makes sense; the PSP is perfectly capable of playing PSX games.  The funny thing is, these guys actually beat Sony to it.  (Sony's been planning a PSX emulator for a while now, but it'll probably be released after PS3.)

PSX-P is the first emulator that can run Playstation games on the PSP.  It runs on PSP consoles with firmware versions 2.71 and lower; with versions below 1.5 you need the eLoader to get it to work.  The emulator is legal, but only if you own the Playstation and the games; to avoid issues of legality, you'll have to find the BIOS file for a PSX elsewhere.

It's not quite as great as it seems, though; currently PSX-P lacks a dynamic recompiler, so the frame rates are a bit slow--around 10 frames a second.  So let's cross our fingers and hope for the best.  Unless, of course, you want to buy them for around $15 apiece through the PS3...
