Does anyone know if 2.4 turned the USB ports back on while the unit is powered off? I'd like my PS3IR on/off unit to be able to turn my PS3 on again. Thanks.

What do you mean "re-enable"? When were they ever enabled when the power was off?

USB was still powered while the ps3 was in sleep mode if you enabled remote connection w/ your psp. That was pre-1.9 (i think). A random firmware update after that removed that bug (feature) and it hasn't been turned back on yet unless they did it this morning.

I think prior to 1.80 (assuming that's a correct number) the USB ports remained powered on so that the Schmartstuff PS3IR on/off dongle allowed you to power on the PS3 (you had to enable "remote play" with a PSP and pair it first though - which I did). After 1.80 (again the number could be wrong) Sony disabled the USB power when the PS3 was powered off and the "on" function was killed.

Have you tried turning on the Remote Play "accessible via internet" option? I know the PS3 stays partially powered up when this is on.

Well, I dunno if they re-enabled it, but my PS3 kept auto-starting when I was playing around with the Remote Play auto-start feature last night. I had to disable that feature because my PS3 would just automatically come on when nothing was pressed.
