so a random guy posts a video on the internet claiming he hacks it, and the entire gaming community claims it official and is happy..

 

its fake, they used a DEBUG old ps3 model which is running linux to use the USB pirate.. it's an obvious scam, if it could work on all ps3's they wouldn't have used a debug ps3.

The guys that posted the video are from a well-know store in Australia. They're even calling the doubters who live nearby to check my themselves. Besides, there has been another reports from both the community and sites. 

The mod itself is supposed to make the PS3 boot on debug mode so what you pointed out is just as valid as the flag waving in the moon argument.

Where are you getting that information from? And as far as I AM CONCERNED he didn't show the front side of the console.. so we don't know if it's a test unit or not..
