Commodore4Eva promotes the X360USB PRO V2 on IRC and says that he has been working on the 1175 and he's 'getting there'!

C4E woke up on IRC. After he promoted the Xecuter X360USB PRO V2 (http://www.maxconsole.com/cgi-bin/maxconsole/rknewz.pl?function=detail&id=RKLS0000007154&cat=XBOX 360) there, he said that he has been working on the Lite-On 1175 drive for Xbox 360, saying there is a 'vendor mode' after all. However, there aren't news for Hitachi drives yet.

Here's the IRC log!:

Yes it has been, but not mentioning anything about his progress until just recently, that is why it has been reported on most 'scene' sites around the 'net, and the fact the first time 'VENDOR MODE' has been confirmed as existing on the 1175.

As for the Hitachi he might not be working on it, but I recently had 'decapped' pictures of it sent to me, with info on the SPI inside it, so might see some progress on that front in the near future.

Very nice news. This mean that all xbox are "hackable", besides reset glitch rest the best solution to play all.

Perhaps the best thing would be to add the word *still* to the title (is still working), as I forgot to add that, sorry hehe ;)
