Yes. I too have seen that wiki post about the folder trick no longer working.
When I JB'd my PW3, by mistake I created a file update.bin.tmp.partial. Later I observed that it had started growing! After I deleted it, and created the folder, I no longer saw the file being downloaded. So it looks like the folder trick is working, after all.
