Is that correct? If so, then the total cost is going to be 101.94 EUR or ($129 or £81) from http://shop.01media.com - I even need Soldering toolkit, wires and the total cost will be higher plus shipping costs.
I honestly have no experience with soldering. The last time I soldered was when I did it at my school for a design project and got ok grades for it. I guess I'll be okay (just need practice). But I wonder if it's really worth all of the efforts and that crazy budget just to downgrade and unbrick if I ever get bricked. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

thats everything you need.
you need a wire from 3.3v on the progskeet to the 3.3v on the adaptor board.
also you need to solder the injectus to the progskeet so you can update it.
if your not happy with soldering then i would suggest taking it to a tv repair shop or a phone repair shop and seeing if they will solder it for you.
or send the console to someone to downgrade it for you.

This is for a PS3 that was bought on release day, the 60GB model, CECHA01. Right now it's at OFW 3.70 and I obviously want to get it back to OFW 3.55 and then CFW. I used to be on KMEAW 3.55, but my 5 year old accidentally upgraded the firmware over a year ago. On hand, I have:
Progskeet v1.2
Slave Board
Adapter PCB Progskeet
Injectus
E3 Card Reader
USB Stick
Soldering Iron, Solder, Wire, etc
My main question is I can follow the tutorial for this, but will doing so work at this time, or do I have to wait? The reason I ask is becasue it was announced there was a memory issue with the current bitstream and there's been no news since. I just want to make sure I won't mess anything up to accomplish what I'm trying to do, and if I have the right tools to do so. Thanks for the help!

i dont have a "setting up progskeet 1.2" yet so if you ask the other users in this thread that have successfully downgraded then they will explain how to do that step.
the rest should be the same (if anyone with the v1.2 can comfirm)

Statistics analysis
1.1 - Open your bkps3.bin in HxD
1.2 - select analysis > statistics > select your file
1.3 - mouse over the blue bars and check if between known good range:
Valid dumps will have
Value NAND NOR
00's 1.43% - 2.68% 18.38% - 29.01%
FF's 18.25% - 24.54% 10.42% - 10.48%
rest below 0.5% below 0.5%
But I cannot go any further, its kind of complicated. Or please show me the way and I will try to check my self.
Thank you very much in advance and please forgive me for my english.
