Since I don't have the time right now to read all these posts and start an arguments about different points of view, I will be honest and say I am just waiting for the day that we just have a method to obtain all the PS3 keys needed to decrypt all the different modules in any PS3 console / model and we can go online without stupid marketing restrictions.

So, nice hardware news (another option in the scene), but not my dream come true =P...this product looks and smells even worse than True Blue for some reason.

My Christmas wish / letter for Santa Claus is: PS3 Security Eternally Exposed

Then finally I will be able to go out and scream to the sky: "Yes! This PS3 console is finally mine! and I can do whatever the hell I want with it now!"

SeeYa!

If xkey hasnt been detected and removed by microsoft by now isnt it safe to say it will be the same for ps3? They also say that when and if microsoft ever updates their dashboard to protect against xkey use that the xkey team simply just puts out an update for the xkey defeating microsofts previous measures taken to fight off xkey. ? am i just retarded?

I was waiting for a chance to be a pirate and honest player on ps3 for quite long. Now i can finally buy some games and play those ones that i can't afford.

although still will wait to see if it really works, and maybe there is some more convinient way. Don't like an idea of my console opening.

This looks cool, but it also looks like it could be alot of money

@baargle out of interest: why not PSX backups? all PS3's read PSX games, why wont they be emulated in this process?

So, if this requires linux... it won't work on 3.55+, for now. Man, I think I really should go DEX!! All these solutions are not worth it.. Except I don't wan't to give up my blu-ray playback functionality and hope that there comes a solution where I can keep it and go DEX..

Oh, and also, someone called maksPRO has posted the following que on eurasia,

If BD drive inserted into the console with 3.55 and extract from it a key?

Now, for every PS3 the BD-Drive is unique and switching requires me to use the BD-Remarry process doesn't it?? Does that process work if I do something like he asked and get the Drive key from EID04 and then use this k3y...??

One question for the XKey Team, why and how come an xkey now?? It's been 6 years to the PS3 and 2 years to the 3.55 fiasco.. What makes them sure that it'll work now and stay working??
