The Gateway team themselves have stated quite clearly that they are working on an update (and are soon ready to release this) that will enable the usage of the *CURRENT* Gateway card (no new card or external hardware needed) on 9.0~9.2 firmware.Yet some people are talking about how you can upgrade to the new version even if all you have is the current version of Gateway and a 9.x 3DS. Why? Am I missing something?
How they are doing this isn't disclosed.
How long they still need isn't disclosed.
Any relations to SSSpwn/Ninjhax, SKY3DS (and clones) or other recent developments are pure speculation.
Long story short - if you want answers to all of this, you'll have to stand in line like the rest of us and wait untill Gateway is ready to reveal their stuff.
Because for all we know they have nothing and are laughing at us running around like headless chickens in speculation mode.
