Hm seems the relationship between Datel and Maxconsole and the hype surrounding this Blue battery of Datels has been uncovered by many of the PSP/PS3 Scenes best hackers, heres StreetskaterFU (http://streetskaterfu.blogspot.com/2009/01/datel-removes-psp3000-service-mode.html) and his take on it:


Do you remember Datel's big announcement regarding the blue battery on PSP 3000?

I'll help you a bit with a maxconsole.net quote:

MaxConsole can exclusively reveal that the brand new PSP 3000 model is now perfectly hackable thanks to Datel's newest tool battery that will put the PSP 3000 into service mode. Once you're in service mode, you can downgrade your PSP and pretty much do what you want with it!

Many people believed this, others were curios from start as the sceners.org author Alek describes very good:

Datel Action Replay does uses code that isn't from itself, code that isn't distributed to be used the way they use it anyway. The code involving this terms is, for first instance, the Pandora forged IPL block, and on second place but of course not less important, Booster's IPL SDK.

Well, like this wouldn't be bad enough for now, actually you read even more worse stuff on Datel's web presence:

Re-engineered specifically for the slimmer 2000 and new 3000 model of the Sony PSP, the MAX Power Digital - Universal Mode Battery lets you enable Service Mode on the PSP 2000 and also works as a normal battery on the new PSP3000 (also known as the BRITE).

As you can read, PSP 3000 support for the suspicous service mode just disappeared in Datel's new "blue battery". So you actually can buy a second battery for your PSP 3000 in a nice blue colour without any special PSP 3k feature. Cooool.

Im sure i remember a site that had a massive campaign against the original datel battery release then they hype them :P, who says the psp scene is dull ....lol
