PSP: PlayStation Portable, the system we’re talking about.
CFW: Custom FirmWare, an altered version of Sony’s Operating System for the PSP. CFW allows you to run Homebrew on your PSP, as well as load ISO images of your games from the Memory Stick.
OFW: Official FirmWare, Sony’s Original Operating System for the PSP. Usually updated constantly for no good reason to the end user.
ISO: Did you just ask what ISO Images are? PSP Games are saved in Universal Media Discs (UMDs), which are like the CDs of PSPs. When the games are copied from those UMDs to memory sticks, they are in ISO format.
HEN: Homebrew Enabled. Once upon a time, there was a day when you couldn’t play ISOs from your Memory Stick, yet, you could use Homebrew. That’s a HEN. (Don’t you love my humor)
I personally see HEN as a “devolved” form of CFW.
Pandora Battery: A Pandora Battery is a normal PSP Battery that has been altered or modified in a specific way to make it boot a PSP Slim/2000 series into “Service Mode” (A form of Recovery Mode).
MMS: Magic Memory Stick, which is a regular Memory Stick that has special software on it. If used with a Pandora Battery on a CHA PSP, you would be able to do about anything .
