They got that information from a post? I don't know if I believe that and besides, make the browser stop freezing and then we'll talk.

Lol i agree with you, i just added that in there, but this maintenance seems the most logical reason for an update plus ps3fanboy is usually right

It has to be coming soon because they are advertising the whole High Quality mode on the Playstation Headset. When Sony officially announces updates they usually come pretty quick.

This update looks fantastic. I think my favorite part is having it shut down aafter a download completes. I always hated I couldn't do that. Good to see Sony is listening to us.

Man not another screen shot feature. I hate the one in bad company UP - a key designed to turn your game into a living lagging hell. I can't even seem to reassign the keys bah!

No this blog entry. Why would they just leave out such a huge feature? I can't imagine they just forgot about it.

It says in the latest entry that there is Flash 9 in the update.

On a related note, the PS3 firmware update (2.50) will add Flash Player 9 support to the PS3 Web browser, so you'll be able to actually watch this video (and all of our blog videos) on your PS3 once the firmware goes live!

My guesses would be either wanted to surprise people with it, or maybe it was still in the final testing stages and wasn't cleared at the time of that blog post.

While I agree with you, Adobe would still have to make a Flash plugin, again, for this new web browser. If they can't even make 64-bit Flash drivers I don't see that happening anytime soon.

No GS vids, IGN vids, or GT vids so that leads me to conclude no flash 9.
