I checked a couple of minutes ago after playing a level of Lego Star Wars, just on impulse mind you (or perhaps the force told me) and there it was...downloading now.
I suppose I should check for an update for my PSP, too, huh?

Look, a full featured BD player for under $400!
This forum is full of people who don't watch or use extra features though according to the BD vs HDDVD debates...
Now like the PS3's video game component, it needs titles that support it.

um if it wasn't getting its but kicked by the Wii and having competition from the 360 the PS3 was $600 at launch remember?
Competition is the only reason the PS3 is $400 not because Sony wants to have a $400 2.0 player
I paid 600 for mine and feel like it was worth every penny...I also turned in my ps2 and they gave me 100 bucks towards the ps3...so 500 for me and I feel like this thing is great...and was great from day 1! The updates have just made it even better!
For me, it's the "resume play" feature being added with this update that will make the PS3 a "full featured BD player." I've been pretty happy with it so far, but even some cheapo SD DVD players let you resume play after turning off the player. Hello?!
Looks like the copy Blu-Ray feature to a PSP wasn't in the update as rumored. Oh Well, still a nice update though.
Yeah, that was the first thing I looked for...no luck. Hopefully it'll make its way in the next release.
2.40 is suppose to add XMB to games.
No one knows for sure, at least who's telling, what is in 2.30.
Rumors include DTS-HD Master Audio and Playstation Home.

Thanks, now off to DVDtalk to check the reviews. (I dont think I want interactivity of SAW IV, its probably dismemberment 101) AVP might be cool.

Profile 2.0 now? Fascinating. I remember threads and industry experts at CES saying in November. Nice to be so far ahead of schedule.
