Yep fair play.
I didn't get to read the rest of the thread, there was the rumour of Sony pulling back to 2 slots for download, as opposed the previous 5 slot.
Have you heard anything about that?

Error… Cat invasion!
Right... First of... I'd like to say thanks to xLew for this great info. I just need to get this straight though. I have 3 working ps3s in my house which are all still activated. I've had 2 others which have YLOD. They are also activated. If I deactivate all. Does this mean I can only reactivate 2 out of the 3 working playstations? If so. I guess there wouldn't be any point in me doing this :s

I think I've found the answer to my own question...

I think it's saying that if I've downloaded something before the 17th Nov. I can still download and use that content on 5 PS3s. Any content I've purchased after 18th Nov can only be used on 2 PS3s. So that kinda sucks!

if you deactivated all then yes i think then you will only be able to activate 2 ps3's for the content you have brought after the 17th. theres only one way to test it is try try it
