Although it's disappointing that Sony have removed the feature from new models, It's good to have this public assurance from Sony that at least the feature won't be removed from older models which are already working. I suppose it shouldn't be too much of a surprise -- if people have bought PS3s specifically to use the advertised 'OtherOS' feature and Sony were to break that with a firmware update, then there may well be legal ramifications. But it's nice to have the promise in writing anyway. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
