eh, did you read a different text? metldr and lv0 are indeed different things.

and, as my link shows (but i quote it again):

 

"Q: What about newer consoles?
 A: So there’s the real problem. Remember how we said bootldr and metldr are fixed in hardware? Sony can create new hardware, and update those modules in the process."

 

so reading this: by now the ps3 is done but it can be changed by sony in future models.

No. Every PS3 shipped after July, 2011 is already fixed for any hack (bootldr and metldr)... they need a new hack to these models.

The scenario for metldr and lv0 are the same... nothing changed. The L1 hack just work in these consoles that works the metldr hack.

From your link...

"If you are on anything higher than 3.55 it doesn’t mean you are out, there are ways to downgrade if your model is one thats able, otherwise you are just not able to do anything right now until more dev work is done. So sit tight and hold on. Again stay tuned, more info and news will be definitely coming."

First bold: PS3 models before the CECH-30* can be hacked (some CECH-20* can't be hacked too)... all PS3 models shipped before July, 2011 is ready for any hack.

Second bold:  Needs a new hack to work with new models.

The l1 and metldr are similiar because just works in the same models... for now nothing changed... if I have a PS3 able to hack it continue able to hack... if I have not able to hack it continue not able to hack.
