Find Out What Firmware A PSP Has From Packaging Proven False?

- A thread on the PSP Updates Forum has appeared which claims to have a working method for finding out which version firmware a PSP will have without opening the box! Great news for new buyers, but apparently this theory has been proven false already.
- RaiderX on the PSP Hacks Forum says that this theory is old, and has unfortunately been debunked.
-Just for completeness, here is the theory anyway:

"On the back of the PSP box by the barcodes, there will be either an '‘A', 'B'’, or nothing at all located below '120V'. If you do not have a letter that means it was purchased sometime near the US release. Having the letter '‘A'’ means that the firmware is a 1.50, and seeing a letter '‘B' there means 1.51. Now you won'’t have to open the box to know your firmware, and most people are willing to find you a PSP box with the letter 'A'’ or no letter at all."
