I don't have any device to jb my ps3, and I'm not gonna buy a htc phone or ti-84 just to jb the ps3, although I have a psp, I heard someone is porting jb clone to psp, so should I wait for the psp port?
Or is there any cheap ways to jb the ps3? I heard of teensy, it's supposedly around $20-30, is there anything cheaper? Like less than $20?

1.) The PSP port is a no-go. Word is that it would be far too complicated to port it over.

2.) Unless you already own one of those instruments, then I don't think so. The Teensy board is your best bet.

I remember hearing somebody somewhere saying they were working on a dongle that would only be $5, but I don't remember hearing anything else about it.

if you look at the cost of jailbreak vs what you can save on games you should not worry about $30 . im in the uk and did it on a ti 84 and it is easy.

OI didn't buy it just to jailbreak my ps3 but I have loved my HTC phones.

First I had the G1 but now I have the incredible and it never ceases to amaze me with the thing I can do with it.

Sure you could spend $25-30 on the various things out there that work, is sell the PSP and put that money towards a phone, even if its a used one.

I'm sure atmel has ramped up production in response to the sudden 3-month backorder on about a dozen of their chips...right now a lack of these chips is driving prices sky high; once the market it flooded with them, we should see the price of these keys drop quite a lot; we should then see quality units under $20...under $5 on ebay (but with $20 shipping).

There is a PSP loader coming for the PS3 soon, so you won't need your PSP unless you like playing it away from home that is.

Isn't that the only use? I mean...the graphics and gameplay are similar to a PS2, but without the sticks. Who would play it at home when they have a PS3?

Can one still buy a PS3 Jailbreak that allows you to back up your games?

I tried to purchase one from ozmodchips but the ruling in Australia forced them to issue everyone a refund.

I still have not updated my firmware on my PS3.

as long as you stay of psn, if your ps3 breaks then no one will no. you ring up report it as faulty ylod or whatever. they send a courrier out with your replacemant and take your old one away.

Few days later. phone call from sony:- this ps3 has been modded...
