this is all i got

contains a vital piece of information which can, well basically convert a retail xbox 360 into a dev.

In theory, Yes! This allows you to take full control of all the fuses inside the xbox and resetting the motherboard to factory. From there, again.. in theory, you could transform boxes from retail to developer!
 
It does alot more then simple fuse control, for example every single engineer at microsoft has one as it is used to do full console diagnostics.
 
There are not very many documentations out there on everything it can do, and because they are so rare they have not been fully explored by the scene yet!

Now these are the types of topics I like seeing posted. Even if I'll never know how to use one of these, the possibility of what it can do amuses me.

I did some reading up on this and they say that it can also allow unsigned code to run and can perform full system diagnostics and might also be able to overclock the CPU and GPU

Interesting indeed

doubt u can take back any console to jtaggable state due to after a certain update the fuses were blown and from my misunderstanding
its impossible to replace the fuses since they are inside the cpu

ding ding ding!





It is possible to prevent the efuses from blowing by cutting certain pcb traces... but the kernel update will cause the console to RROD because the proper efuses were not blown.

this device takes controll of the fuses.
It just allows it to take i back to factory default where it can be turned into a dev kit.
There is extremely little information available but it still can be used for many uses.
Price of this little magic maker was set at $1500
i will contact the seller to see if he still has it if so i will let you all know.

there are leaked microsoft documents with more info about the board online, just google 'lamprey board' and you will find the rapidshare link

also, i thought dev kits have that side car thing that sits on top of the console with extra hardware inside? wouldnt all this be useless without that?
