First of all it seems like many users in this thread (not you ethomaz) don't realize that this hack is appliable for around 50m PS3s.

Then obviously this is not another breakthrough, but it adds the features of 3.55-4.30 and it should make it far easier to play the most recent games.

Don't know much about PSN, but I guess it's still possible to access it with some work (and help from little tools and programs). Most likely not for the masses though.

The things are easy now and the hackers can get the PSN key/password too but Sony can change it every week/month or so... the hacks need to get the new key/password to make a new CFW to works with PSN again... that's what I know about the PSN.

The fear is about the ban hammer... Sony can discover if your account used a CFW... so Sony can ban your account (you can create another of course).

The PS3 models able to hack now can use the lastest firmware customized and new features can be added with the new lv0 keys... but just the previous hackable models can be hacked (these 50m PS3 you said).

The work know is discover the lv0.2 keys to make all the PS3 models hackable... at least until Sony put some lv0.3 keys in future models.
