Expensive for now but if it works I'm sure they'll drop in price quickly.

ERROR CODE: 403
Ok, I really sorry everyone is seeing this 403 page instead!
But sadly to say we been "slashdot'ed" and "engadget'ed"!
And even "google news" has ontop of the list!
That what happens when a confirmed working PS3 modchip is finally out!
I am moving the site to a new $4,000 per month server, with 2.5terabytes of HDD, two 12-core CPU's, and 32gigs of RAM, with our own direct pipe to the 'net, hopefully that will be enough to handle the 100,000 users online at once now! - If not, I going to borrow some money from Google!

I have been in contact directly with the manufacturer and can confirm some things you have all been asking about...
1. FAT32 is currently supported. They are working on NTFS.
2. They recommend staying on current firmware and not updating until they have deemed it safe. The dongle is fully updatable.
3. Online play does work but they cannot guarantee that it will work with all future titles.
4. Final retail units are ready to ship.
5. Official reseller list will be on their site in the next 48 hours. You can pre-order from any of the official resellers. There are websites out there now claiming to be selling but they are not legitimate. Don't get ripped off. Wait until the official list is posted.

this comment is good:
Just remember a couple of things when evaluating this "product"
1) OzModChips charges when you order, not when it ships. This screams SCAM. It might not be a scam, but no reputable e-business charges you until your order ships. 2) If the hack runs on a USB drive, its just software. That means instead of feeding money to the pirate community, you can just wait until a couple people get it and upload an ISO of the dongle. If you are going to pirate, do it right.

It could be fake, a usb dongle doesn't necessarily mean just software though, could be hardware, will be cloned instantly either way though.

That's what Sony get for pissing off hackers by removing the other OS feature, there wasn't much effort in it until then.

I read somewhere, and completely agree, it's basically the same as the Pandora Battery for the PSP.

it doesn't play downloaded blurays "just fine". MKVs require a conversion of some sort.
whoever uses a power hungry PS3 to play a DOWNLOADED mkv should invest in a network tank or a revo.
