In other news... I'm really annoyed for having to waste my bandwidth of 2.41 as 2.40 had no issues on my PS3... and I was about to play BF:BC too 
Now the update failed 3 times lready (although it might have something to do with my new network setup...)
BAH!

I'm not sure if it was in 2.4 or not ( i didnt check ) but you can now turn the PS3 off via. the XMB (users section)

Yup... That was in the 2.4 Update... You als have a nice Mini Player for your Music (start a song playing, push the PS Button, go to the top of music list and voilla, you have the portable music player...)

both in and out of game. But you cant still only play music in game if the game it self suports it.

Looks like it

So I updated to 2.41 and after installation it says "Correct hard disk can not be found"! WTF!?.. sure I have upgraded my PS3 to 250G HDD but it has been working fine since putting it in months ago!
I did a hard reset on the system and re booted.. all seems fine now but it did make me think... ohhhh s@#t... here we go...
Anyone else had this problem after install? or in general?

I can't even download 2.41 from the PS3. It indicates my system is up to date. I am on 2.40.
Went to the Aus PS website and the US PS web site, they still show 2.36.
They haven't pulled 2.41 have they?
