Both early launch consoles which feature [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/index.php?title=Flash_%28Hardware%29#NAND NAND flash] memory (block devices, that interleave their data unlike [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/index.php?title=Flash_%28Hardware%29#NOR NOR flash]) and later consoles which feature [http://www.ps3devwiki.com/index.php?title=Flash_%28Hardware%29#NOR NOR flash] memory are able to be flashed.

Work has been underway to brink a low cost AVR ([http://www.atmel.com/devices/AT90USB1286.aspx Atmel AT90USB1286]) based NOR flasher that is capable of reading and writing on all consoles by defyboy. This was opensourced and further enhanced, now known as NORway for [[Teensy++ 2.0]] boards.

Other people haven't been sitting idle either: uf6667 and bmx have developed [[Progskeet 1.0 / 1.1]], based on an [http://www.actel.com/documents/PA3_DS.pdf Actel A3P125 FPGA] for NAND and NOR based consoles (not only PS3, but also useable for Wii and Xbox360). Later followed up by [[Progskeet 1.2]], which was anounced to get an open API.

Although highly hyped/marketed as universal flasher, it is not the recommended end user choice: long history of issues, long time between fixes, no clear support path etc.
