PS3 firmware 3.56 hacked in less than a day, Sony’s lawyers look confused

Sony’s taken some strong steps against PS3 cracking in the past week — not only has it taken to the courts and won a temporary restraining order against Geohot and fail0verflow for cracking the console, but it also released firmware 3.56 , which locked things down again. Unfortunately, that restraining order doesn’t mean anyone else has to stop a-crackin’, and wouldn’t you know it: 3.56 was cracked open in less than a day by KaKaRoToKS, who was behind one of the first 3.55 custom firmwares . Now that the 3.56 signing keys are out, we’d guess updated custom firmware is soon to come — and we’d bet Sony’s lawsuit will just inspire an entirely new wave of people to jailbreak once those hit the scene.

Galaxy Tab gets 1.2GHz overclock, very scary warning

It’s here, what looks to be the world’s first attempt at overclocking a Samsung Galaxy Tab . User Bauxite at the always happening xda-developers forums has posted the way to boosting Samsung’s hunk of burning Android up to 1.2GHz — along with some seriously stern warnings: THIS KERNEL MAY NOT WORK ON YOUR DEVICE, MIGHT DESTROY YOUR DEVICE, MIGHT PUNCH YOUR CHILDREN, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY THIS KERNEL, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK Initial user reports are generally positive but, given the risk and the complexity here we think we’ll be staying at the stock 1GHz speed. For now, anyway.

Drop Stop Keeps Stuff Out of Your Crack

Drop Stop Keeps Stuff Out of Your Crack The crack between your car’s seat and center console is a vast black hole of lost keys, french fries, coins, receipts and breath mints. I once lost my small dog under the seat. Drop Stop puts a $20 end to all that by filling in the crack with a piece of black neoprene that “matches any car’s interior” (cause it’s black.
