[*]Q - Do I need to have the device plugged in the entire time?
A - The official one requires that, however it's been discovered it purposely resets the PS3 when you remove it. The homemade one can be unplugged after activating, though you need to reactivate dev mode each time you turn the PS3 on.

I have a little noob question about this:

What happens if we turn on the PS3 without it?

It works like before the jailbreak right?

Side effects (like all "illegal" content deleted), or just unable to launch them?

The device just allows you to go into a developer/repair mode on the PS3. Once you remove the device it acts just as it did previously, which means you will be unable to run any unsigned code/homebrew applications. It will not remove any content.

Ok I have a question here...
My brother updated to 3.42 because he's a COD addict, and I was just about to test my first backup

. So.. Is there any way at all to get rid of that update? can't I just format everything and try to install 3.41 from a usb drive? Or is there any other way?

    Nah, a hit gives them mad meth powers, but makes them more difficult to control.
