    Just wondering is there any reason to have the Cobra dongle over CFW?

    Um, cobra is basically a CFW that shows its features only if the dongle is inserted, so it's pretty much the same as a CFW except it takes up 1 USB port :P
    And IMO the features are worth it, especially if your PS3 can play PS2 games.

    I have 2 different systems, one that has 3.55CFW on it that I use for myself (mainly to mod different aspects of games)
    and one that is my wife and kids machine. It still has 3.41 with the dongle. Since I know you keep up with all of this I thought I'd ask, if I were to get the Cobra USB in and install everything on that system, would all the emulators and games that we already had modified eboots on for the 3.41 work with that CFW or does it only have the cobra CFW on it when their dongle is inserted? Sorry to ask but I just want to make sure before I order this thing that my kids don't kill me because nothing is working anymore lol

    Cobra CFW which is 3.55 so there is a possibility some games would need original EBOOTs
