97w ago - Today PlayStation 3 developer
uf6667 has
Tweeted news announcing a new PS3 hardware flasher project called ProgSkeet.
Currently the official site ProgSkeet.com doesn't offer any details beyond the
ProgSkeet PS3 Install Diagrams and
ProgSkeet Multi-Console Install Diagrams, however, he did provide some pictures (below, with high-res
HERE) of the ProgSkeet device and the
ProgSkeet Drivers,
ProgSkeet Flasher Software and
ProgSkeet Flasher Software Update followed by some more updates in
THIS ongoing Forum thread.
Based on them, ProgSkeet appears to utilize an Actel A3P125 IC (datasheet
HERE) which is common among modchips due to its security, and offers enough address lines for at least 2 (if not more) NANDs with 16 general purpose lines and boasts 125,000 system gates with 133 maximum user I/O lines. It also offers JTAG pads, presumably used for programming the device.
Upon completion, ProgSkeet will allow users to downgrade and jailbreak their PS3 similar to the
Infectus Mod along with backing up and reflashing the console's memory.
More details will be posted as they become available on the ProgSkeet project, with a video now posted below and a
ProgSkeet Review for those interested.
woow so cheap...

...
I did not intend for my post to sound so blunt - I really would like to know what other features end-users would like to see.
Just looked at who posted it on twitter as well - surely not uberfry!
