this IS the new golden firmware.
no question about it.
of course, some "tweaking" apps will have to be modified to support the dual game folders, but there is not one homebrew that does not work atm.
there is a SMALL amount of tweakage required for SOME homebrew...read my post in this particular forum section on tips and tricks to get those corrupt homebrew un-corrupt.
and yes, d_a needs to do some tweakage to the firmware....but as far as compatibility, i've found 100% compatibility aside from firmware modding programs. and i already changed my font safely, and im working on changing my gameboot.
golden firmware? eventually. right now its just a tint away...i'd say white gold atm =)
