    Well it didnt brick my ps3... so i can say is a safe update.
    I actually stood there and looked for what was new.... took me a while to figure out that  there wasnt anything new to the xmb
    The gameing card still takes ages to load.. BUT NOW THERE IS A LITTLE YELLOW START besides your trophy numbers so I guess that was the update.
    Couple of new options under BD settins, system settings has new options as well. They upadated the divx thingy i think because now there is an option to register a code on a website.. ( for better playback) i dont know but since its free we should be happy

    my 2 cents.

    Oh and the most useful update was the * last time he was log* thing, it helps when youn want to delete people that never connects ;p

    I thought that the "Last Login" thing was amazing... so amazing that I deleted some people!

    However, where do you go to set the "Turn off after downloading" thing?

    Honestly, from what I read, the update to flash 9 is one of the biggest things there. The screen shot thing sounds kewl but I hear its a "per game basis" as in a dev needs to include the feature for it to work :(

    No, it wasn't. It was the Flash Player 9, but whathever. So this is your apology for bitching on Sony for weeks now?

    Before you download something it should say "turn off download after complete" and then you tick the box".

    Edit: No that's not the right way. Go to "Turn off system" via the XMB and it should come up "Turn Off Download Automatically After Download."

    I hope Sony puts it on their website soon. Because god unknown, I've never been able to download any firmware straight from my PS3 without getting an error. Not. Once.

    To be honest, the only feature I'm looking forward to is being able to skip to minute/2minute/etc increments in videos.

    Prince thinks you should leave him alone. Prince thinks that posting in third person makes him laug so Prince thinks he's innocent. Pince doesn't know what he is saying so Prince thinks you should ignore him now...
