Noob to PS3 modding

[gnarkill]

Like the title says, I am a noob to modding PS3's...I have mastered xbox's and nintendo's, but am at a loss on where to begin with the PS3's. I was looking at buying this in canada:

and

Modchip.ca|Modchips & Accessories for Wii, DSi, Xbox 360, PS3, PS2 :: PS3 :: E3 AVR (real original device)

Any ideas on where to get started with jailbreaking with these tools?

Thanks

Those are both good devices. For the Minimus you'll need the Flip programming software. You can find all sorts of guides over here: Open Source & Homebrew Jailbreak - PSX PS2 PS3 Scene Modchip & Jailbreak Community for what hex files to use and how to flash the device.

As for the E3, it's an all in one type of device. There are some threads in the recent news section, or you can goto the official E3 webpages for various instructions in broken English (E3 or here's a fairly good guide of how to update it: E3 Card Reader – A SAFE PS3 Jailbreak Product? - Dukio)

Thanks for the help. Do they have "Where to begin" sort of section? I have looked sround Open Source & Homebrew Jailbreak - PSX PS2 PS3 Scene Modchip & Jailbreak Community and am at a total loss on where to start...thanks

Depends on what you're looking for. Hex's for all board collection is a good thread to start in if you're going to go the dev board route (Minimus). There's also a PS Jailbreak FAQ in the General Jailbreak section that's always a good starting point.
