In simple terms, here's why a simple usb stick will not work.

Note I am not "flaming" or putting anyone down.
These are the simple facts how this works.
I have been reading and learning how the process works for a very long time and am very familiar with how PPC operates.

The problem with the usb stick is that it can only do one thing, be a usb stick.

The dongle has the ability to do more than just a usb "stick" - in fact it has very little memory.
Per say the dongle has a little brain that can be taught to do various things.
The dongle pretends to be something it is not and cause the ps3 to "glitch" and open a "hole" for code to be injected into.
From there, the code starts to work and unlock the ps3's safeguards.

This is the simplest terms how it works and why a simple usb stick will not work.
Sadly, a usb stick can not trigger the "glitch" and the "hole" to form.
The ps3's security is far to strong/dose not work in ways to load files off a usb stick on boot merely having them on such a device.

Some people have been waiting for free means of a "PSJailbreak" device.
I encourage the development of free means of doing this - however i am not holding my breath.
Most likley it will be done using a usb A to A cable on a computer, psp, iPhone, or Android device.
Basically this exploit needs something with a "brain"

I feel this will clear things up for most people.

I use quotes around "PSJailbreak" as when i say "PSJailbreak" i also am referring to the clone devices witch function the same way as well.
They all use the "smart" stick concept.

So to conclude things:

A device like this will not work!

Its not nice to be the messenger, but someone has to do this or else people will start to waste $ and time.

There is the full run-down of the exploit and how it works.

I would like to ask with no intent of flaming:

"What idiots actually thought this could be run on a regular USB stick?"
And how many of you were waiting for that release?
