Firmware 2.01 is now available for download

PS3 firmware 2.01 is now available via Network Update. This minor update will fix a few glitches noted in the big 2.00 release. Hopefully, those that have reported game freezing, and other performance issues, will be able to sigh a breath of relief. Update: Here's the "official" word on what's new:

• Improved stability when playing some PS3 format software

• Improved stability of some system applications, including the Internet Browser and Information Board

• Improved stability of the upscaler for PlayStation format software when played on PS3 models that are backwards compatible

• The new Remote Start feature has been changed to avoid an unintentional power-on. Remote Start was introduced in firmware version 2.00 to enhance the Remote Play feature by enabling users to turn on a PS3 system remotely with their PSP system from an Internet hotspot.
