The PSP is region locked only for UMD movies being played on the machine. all games are region free and will work from anywhere in the world
Yes. The games are region free, it doesn't matter where the game or the console comes from. PSP movies however are different, they are region locked, so read the case carefully when buying.
Only the region they came from. This will determine what movies will play on it, as the movies are region locked (but the games are not). PSP-1000 is the general name for all PSP's of the 1000 series, as opposed to the 2000's and the 3000's. So a 1003, or a 1006, are all 'model 1000' PSPs from different regions. The region code will be printed on the bottom of the console. In this case, if the PSP has PSP-1000, then this is a Japanese PSP. If it has 1003, it is a United Kingdom PSP (Continental Europe has a different code, 1004).
A PSP 3002 is a PSP-3000 ('brite') for Australia and New Zealand. What it means is, the firmware is region locked to only allow Region 4 UMD movies to be played on it, though games from any region will work.
The difference is the Region, which is important when playing UMD movies, but games are region-free so should be ok. PSP-3000 is the generic name for that model, but one marked with -3000 on the bottom is a Japanese one, while -3004 is a European one.

PSP video games are all region free, so no firmware is needed to play them. However, movies are not, so it would depend on the movie in that case.
No, while PSP games are region free, the UMD movies are not. A UK UMD movie will not play on a US PSP.
You should have no problem with games as all PSP games are region free, the only problem is with UMD Movies which are region coded. To put it simply any game will work anywhere.
Yes, European PSP games will work on a US PSP, and vice versa. The games are region free, but the UMD movies are not.

All PSPs are region locked, but the UMD games themselves are not region specific. You can therefore play any PSP game on any PSP (barring the PSP Go which is different), however UMD movies are region locked just like DVDs.

No, the UMD movies are region-locked. You could only play a Region 1 movie UMD in the USA, for example. The games will work fine on any region though. Obviously an American PSP will not stop playing Region 1 movies if you take the console into another country.
Yes, PSP games are not region locked, though PSP movies are.
u cant
PSP Game UMDs are not region coded, BUT the movies are... So if anyone knows how to do this let me know.
