Can I use this as a dongle?

So, I've got this USB drive that I found at a store but it was only a 256MB stick. But when I plug it in, it pops up a CD Drive, so it's got some software built in this. When you format the stick, it's like that partition is hidden. Anyways, this stick looks just like the PS3Key, is it possible that I can program this usb stick to use as a jailbreaking solution?

Would anyone know?

Is it possible that the stick has a controller in it to be used that way? Because I don't get what else that hidden partition would be.

Thanks

Short answer: no….

Jailbreak devices are NOT seen as USB sticks on computers….they are dev boards….the USB stick you have is alot like other USB devices out there that have built in software for Windows..

USB mass storage devices can't be used to jailbreak.

Well see, this USB Drive wasn't like other storage devices because whenever you plug it in, it always pops up this drive to autorun. It's got some software on it, but I don't use it.

Anyways, thanks for the help on that!

And I haven't been reading much about the PS3 scene, so is there somewhere I can read about payloads and hex's and all that stuff?

Also, what USB do you guys recommend for jailbreak?

I know where I am, I just thought there was like a wiki entry or something that had it all in one thread. But I'll just read around...
