You cannot create a developer PSN account, so going online on here would be pretty much nil.) I've talked to a Sony game developer about things like this. A devkit cant go on retail PSN, and a retail cant go on dev PSN (without jailbreak and a dev account)
kinda figured i'd needa jailbreak it to go online. can test consoles even install a dex cfw such as 4.75 ITA? if so i guess i'd just install that and use a retail CID. so long as i can go back to ofw at anytime without risking a brick it'll be right.
i knew about private company networks just didn't know if NP would work or not.
And no, from a collecters point of view it decreases the value, for people who intend on using them everyday then yes it would increase value depending on the cooling mods.
