[quote name='silent h3ro']Give it time. I hear Datel came out with a tool that will be a huge breakthrough in cracking the 3000.[/quote]
I read about the blue kit last weekend, silent h3ro -- it was all over MaxConsole. However, the Datel battery's efficacy is limited, acc. to Dark Alex, and the very last Slims might have slightly different issues from the 3000 series.
I'm not ruling out the idea that 3000s and very late 2000s will be hackable in the future. However, they aren't for the time being, and since I have two PSPs already, I should probably either refrain from getting the mint green (even at the bargain price) or join a 12-step program.
