More update's finally here on the much-awaited 3-hour Sony Conference for GamesCom in Cologne, Germany later this month. Of course, that is not to say it's official, but nonetheless, who doesn't love a good rumor, right? We've already heard that the presscon will supposedly announce the PS3 Slim and the PSP Go price cut, but it did leave us hanging with one more "mystery announcement."
This right here be the "mystery". Sources of PSInsider describes that this last item is being done only "for the first time". That would be the announcement on Firmware 3.0, though not necessarily releasing it on the same day. The announcement will supposedly coincide with the release of the new PlayStation Network - something that Sony has hinted previously to come sometime around the 18th.
As to what could be featured in the new PSN, we have yet to find out, although we're betting on some premium features, like access to unlimited downloads at a flat rate, maybe.
Before you go whopping with joy, however, keep in mind, THIS IS JUST A RUMOR. GamesCom will be happening from August 19 to 23, 2009 in Germany.

You dont know Sony very well, these rumors were made by them, they like releasing early info under different names.
Oh believe me, they have done this since PS1 came out.
They make it seem like rumors to just make people hype it up mpre.
The closer it is to Gamescom, the more they leak.
They did this with PSP GO before E3.
There doing it with PS3 slim aswell.
The closer Gamescom is, the more leaks sony lets out.
These rumors arent really rumors, there sonys way of making people hype stuff even more.
Rumors?
Hahahahaha, its sonys way of marketing, they have been doing this since the beginning.
Also August 18 is the day, when Sony announces the stuff, it aint 19th.
August 19 is when Gamescom starts but august 18th is the beginning of Gamescom.
Oh you will understand soon.

There was talk about a yearly/monthly rate and you would be able to download as many PS1 games and/or movies as you would like.
Has nothing to do with online play, demos and such....

It's called business. If a competitor has something you don't, you'd better be ready to answer that feature with your own.
