IR Toy repurposed for Play Station 3 jailbreak

Daedalus used the PIC18F2550 on the USB IR Toy to jailbreak his Play Station 3 (original article , machine translation). He programmed the IR Toy with PL3GrooPIC, a port of the PSGroove jailbreak utility that runs on PIC microcontroller. PL3GrooPIC firmware works with the Diolan bootloader in the USB IR Toy, no changes required.
