TheStunMan wrotenice mms, your always up-to date ;)
As for me i didnt buy any new games as it will flash my dvd drive and i will loose my mod, theres a workaround though is to reflash your original firmware (before updating your dashboard) and then install the new update via usb and then reflash the 1.9 firmware, i didnt try this but i've read it somewhere, but anyway ill wait for 2.0 to be on the safe side.
You are absolutely correct
this is usually done to avoid a "flagged" console on Microsoft's side for those who still are on XBL
Although i have told many to just be patient, and keep on eye on

Not only that but with the eminent release for LT+ 2.0 i highly predict c4eva will release LT for all SLIM models !
Note: all literations of LT were just to fix those 6 games or so (call of duty, Halo and what not) that were being blocked out after every update. This is why we have LT 1.1, 1.9 and 1.91 so on and so forth
LT+ 2.0 is a BIG update - for all XGD3 games, so you can only imagine how long it MAY take and the amount of testing it will need.
Not to mention i believe c4eva is doing so in such a way in order to keep our old burned games - there is a high possibility that games ever since Fifa 10 had dorement AP2.5 checks and with any dashboard update this may lead to us having to patch and reburn all our games since then (again this is what is believed till now)
