The story is spreading like a wildfire, so lets extinguish it before it gets out of hand. An Italian website claims that the PS3 banwaves are rolling in as error “8002A227″.
Well the proof of ban was taken in 2008, Sony has not started to ban consoles yet so disregard the news 
Stay tuned for more updates.
Thanks to all that send it in.

I still wouldn't try playing online with PSGroove just yet anyway. I wouldn't doubt Sony has prepared for something like this since the original Geohot hack.
Once a PSP port is released and more people start to use it we'll see what they have in store.

A question:
What if I just wouldn’t go online with my hacked PS3?
And everytime I want to play online, I’d just pull out the JB…
Would that work that way without getting banned? (IF SONY WOULD START BANNING PPL)

The playstation network content is free only for playstation plus users so do they have the rights to take this free feature away?

I apologize to all users:
I'm StandardBus, from the moddingstudio website.
Mathieulh confirms that no one PS3 is yet banned.
We misunderstood a post from an user writing our news.
It is not the first time publish indicative pictures into an article.
Usually publish pictures of our tests with the news.
Well, this time was not so: we have not encountered personally the error 8002A227
We wanted to prove the truth of what is published in other news sites talking about the PS3 long before we 8002A227 error, but we could not do so because of two broken PS3 to 2 pending reballing.
Surely you’ll wonder why even though I work on an electronic repair center (not Sony) has not yet made reballing both ps3 to prove the PSgroove with online games… why is a simple and clear: The infrared soldering station I usually use to reball PS3s is actually not working, so I could not prove what was said, I’ve simply searched on google images that would suggest any mistake in online the PSN.
I’m waiting for new arrivals from Shenzhen infrared soldering station, so try the above in the fake article.
The image I posted was the one that just inspired me, but that does not necessarily indicate the error I mentioned in the article.
So I apologize for having published one (1!) fake news because human mistake after hundreds of hours spent in front of the PC and console for testing on exploits, homebrew, backups and so, after thousands of posts written to help users, after publishing dozens of guides all functioning perfectly.
I apologize to you for having mistakenly published a fake news, I am only sorry that this news has gone around the world running out even on important sites for my mistake.
Excuse me.

Hello all,
Is Psgroove reversible? i have heard that you don't need to plug in your AVR board or other device once you jailbreak. is this right? Does this mean once it is jailbroken it remains like this?
My idea is play backup games 'offlline' and never go online. i shall go online only when my ps3 is not in jailbreak mode.
is this possible?
Cheers
Newbie!
