I may not be able to create the themes that I've been working on till after july.
Well the reason for this is that last night after playing Call of Duty 4 on the 360 soda got spilled on my psp slim. Not even 2 seconds was the soda on it before I went to clean it both from the inside and out. Afterwards I tried turning it on and it worked. Once I was heading back to were I was staying at I tried turning it on but it didnt work, my first thought was that the battery died so I didnt worry much. So I got to the house and put it to charge, but it still wouldnt turn on. I then opened it up again and left it open for like 5 minutes before closing it again. I left it sit on its own for like 30-60 minutes while I lit some fireworks and when i went inside it worked again. I then went to sleep and left it charging, when I woke up it turned on just fine, everything was working properly. I then started playing Monster Hunter Freedom Unite on it and it was working flawlessly I then turned on the Music.prx plugin and all of the PSP's keys stopped working. I couldnt move at all so I Removed my PSP's battery to turn it off. I tried to turn it on again and it didnt work. I let it sit again this time for like 6 hours and it still hasnt turned on, not light or anything, I feel that my psp is now DEAD. I have another psp back home but i won't be able to use it for at least 3 weeks I think, so my themes will have to wait.
If any of you have had a similar problem and have found a way to fix it, please let me know.

Not sure how you can fix your problem, maybe try taking out the individual keys and cleaning them out (could have a sticky problem because of the sugary soda?)... even though there might be some problem with it, I doubt its dead yet though, since it did turn off, not turn on, then turn on at a later time... and it did this twice... so I'm sure it can turn on again. Just keep tinkering with it I guess.

Anyways, we can always wait 3 weeks, looking forward to more of your themes!
best of luck

try putting your psp with removed battery in a rice bowl... i heard it helps remove water or liquids from psps
EDIT:if this works could you please convert muted to 5.50 GEN-A?
