Ps3 USB Mod: PS Jailbreak

Yesterday, OzModChips received a tiny little package which contained a little tiny USB dongle going by the name of PS Jailbreak. What does it do?

This device allows you to dump all of your original PS3 games onto a FAT32 harddrive, as well as opening up your PS3 console to a new generation of homebrew applications.  Load homebrew apps/games off any USB hard drive/flash drive.

I cannot condone the use of piracy with this device, game devs really deserve to be paid for there efforts, but the potential for homebrew applications on the PS3 is massive.  Imagine a XBMC powered HTPC running off a PS3 Slim!

The clones have already arrived with the PS Break being incredibly cheap at around $30:

PS3 Jailbreak Clone available at volumerates.

PSX Scene have a massive thread on this release here and you can visit the official PSJailbreak website here and yes this small USB device really works.
