If you have a WiFi connection, you can download it directly to the PSP using Network Update, but if not, you'll have to go to the PSP website, DL it to your PC, and use a UCB cable to transfer it.

I think the PSP Theme & Firmware Update Thread is your answer... ;)

The .PBP file is put into the X:/PSP/GAME/UPDATE folder.

(You'll need to create the UPDATE folder for each update after deleting)

On the XMB (the main screen) of the PSP, go all the way to the left most icon. Once there, go up to the top one in that column, it will say "Network Update." If you have a wifi connection set up on your PSP, hit X to go into the update checker. Once it connects to the server, it will check for updated firmware. If you have the newest version, it will tell you so, but if not, it will prompt you to download the newest one. It takes about 25-26MB on a memory stick. once the thing downloads, you can start installing the update, but you can't install it if your PSP is plugged in to the AC adaptor. Once the installation starts, it takes a few hits on the X button to confirm things, then it does its thing. Once your PSP restarts, you can delete the firmware update from your Memory stick. To do that, go to the game icon on your XMB and go down to the one that says Memory stick. the firmware will show up, hit triangle to bring up the options, and then hit delete.

JUST REMEMBER WHEN UPDATING YOUR PSP , IT HAS TO BE PLUGGED IN AND HAS TO HAVE A FULL CHARGE! DO NOT FOR ANY REASON TURN THE POWER OFF OR PUT IT IN SLEEP MODE UNTILL THE UPDATE IS FINISHED AND YOU RESTART YOUR PSP.

Ok, so theres being new to the system and theres being an idiot. If you have wireless just select network update on the homepage or if you don't just go on your PC and google firmware patch and download. Simple.
