The Gamer Access is speculating that the new PS3 Firmware 2.80 just might be announced very, very soon. On the SCEA's Press Information website, it was allegedly found that there was a link for the PS3 Debug Firmware Update 2.80. However, clicking on it only leads to the message "The file requested do not exist".
Meanwhile, The Examiner takes it further by predicting that the Firmware will be released as soon as tomorrow, identifying it as a basic update. It is said that while there will be no new additions to be made available, there will be a few fixes directed at increasing performance suc as in having faster Trophy synchronization and faster XMB loads. Speculation also runs that it might introduce the messaging and game invite system, but again, this is not a hundred percent certain. More PS3-related Rumors:

Yep, it's out.
I have updated and am now on 2.80.
I cant tell if there is any new features, i didn't get a splash screen during update that were new features.
It does seem that i can access my XMB from fallout3 (this is the only game i have gone to XMB from) faster and that it (in game XMB) is less jumpy.

» New update also includes...
when you had guitar hero world tour instruments plugged in (the wireless usb thing), the ps3 used to autoassign them to slots 1-2, and my dualshock 3 would assign to controller spot 3 even if the gh instruments werent on.
After update: my guitar hero instruments assign themselves to slot 7, and my ds3 assigns to slot 1.

» I only wanna test if TAZ works again...
I am just pissed off ever since TAZ stops working with 2.7 If it works again, great! If it doesn't... expected. There is only one way to find though ;)

There is this thing called XIM. It connects to your PC usb and can read your PC's kb and mouse then sent signal to the TAC which is a PS2 to PS3 adapter. So with that you can replace the controller with your kb and mouse. For ppl like me who cannot play any FPS with a controller it is a blessing.

Yep, 2.80 can be downloaded by selecting System Update/Update via Internet. 2.80 sits there.
I'll wait until tomorrow to grab it. Time for bed.

You do know that the PS3 can download and install it then turn itself off, right?

» Yeah, I know
Because it isn't mandatory, I didn't want to get it until I heard some reports on whether or not it bricked any PS3s. So I figure go to bed, wake up, and read the boards. Then grab it.

» What?
So I expected to get the "An Update is Available" message, and I would have to download it before I could go online. But I actually had to select it without being logged off of the PSN. Is this update not mandatory?

I'm not sure. I asked the same thing. I got about 50% downloaded, and I stopped. Maybe they didn't mean to release it so early, and that's why you weren't prompted to download it.
I'll wait to see if it causes problems on any systems.

» the main reason...
its just a stability patch.. and it blocks OPEN REMOTE PLAY.. they enforce updates when it is necessary.. the enforced updates have some sort of patches in em that may prevent glitches in online play that will give somebody the advantage. but if the update doesnt tweak any type of network communication then to them its not worth enforcing it.. especially when half of the psn community is just gonna complain about it being forced.. thats just what it seems liek to me
