Oh dear. There's no stopping it now. Sony did a good job of getting the much talked-about PS3 hacking device, PSJailbreak, its first banning, but now hackers have got it running on mobile phones.
Unbelievably, crafty coders have found a way to make smart phones such as the Nokia N900 and the Palm Pre do the same job as that ridiculously expensive USB stick the original PSJailbreak hackers were selling.
It looks like a simple app that runs on the phone while it's tethered to PS3 via a USB cable, enabling the same "homebrew" and "backup" capabilities as the original PSJailbreak. And this will inevitably find itself ported to several other phone models in the coming weeks.
That's it for Sony's fight against its use, then, but be warned: while they can't stop you getting it, it's claimed they can detect its use. And it's a big PSN ban hammer for you if you're caught. Geddit?

Hmm, not sure if I was getting free games I'd care too much about missing out on PSN
