Go my dev kit in the mail today, right before I had to go to work. Fooled around with it for about 10 minutes, looked around PartnerNet a bit and then shut it off. I get into work today and the guy who I bought the kit from shoots me this IM:
This seems incredibly strange to me, if true. I was curious as to whether or not anyone else had this happen to them, or had heard about it happening to anyone else.
A guy on another forum confirmed that his kit was hit as well, I asked him exactly what happened:
Another person says:
I can't confirm anything right now, but I thought this deserved it's own thread for other dev kit owners in the forums. Be careful!
Update: Another reply.

Another person says:
From what I hear, a nand restore can't revive you ;x.

An console with erased or corrupted CB will start up with 3 RED LIGHTS and an error code of either E08 (0020) or E10 (0022).
Whomever have a license/NDA can request service for the kits.
Who doesn't, patience ...
