Pretty crazy. Hopefully this gets resolved soon. It's amazing how fast the PS3 went from seeming secure to being blown up like this. I wonder how long the console would have gone without issue if they hadn't removed Other OS.
I consider this whole thing a PS3 security issue because I believe the reports that this is all because of a custom firmware that allowed hacked PS3s to join the dev net and use any bogus CC#s they entered to buy PSN items.
