If you continue to use an unauthorized Memory Unit after the update, you will not be able to access your stored profile or saved games."

This was from the 16th, so I don't know how long till the update. I couldn't see a post letting x-box gamers here know so sorry if its a repeat, or if it belongs somewhere else.

Wasn't sure you guys had read it. Thanks to Mem for the details.
