» Local photos only
Pictures supported in the new photo app are only those stored on the PS3 itself. Also doesn't work with DNLA networked media. Bad move for Sony, it's a fantastic app (granted one that only certain people will care about) but most who would use it would stick in their camera card so what's the point? Hopefully the app will get a patch to become more functional.

They removed Backward Compatibility for the PS2 so they can add backward compatibility for old video codecs, next update will have WMV 5 codec set. XD

» Blu-Ray Disc Theme Support
not sure if this is the same, but on my pineapple express blu-ray.
under game it has a "theme" which is just a wallpaper.
i have yet to download this update but i wonder if it will add more to that "theme"
"HDD Data can be accessed and deleted in-game" huh? what does this even mean? i could access stuff before (well see it at least) can i actually view photos/videos/ PLAY MUSIC ?! :O
i don't understand

» not sure but
i think they mean that you could access the system folder on the xmb bar when your playing a game, because if you want to delete a file of a game it prompts you to get out of the game to do that option.

What MS patented wasn't in-game music, but the mandatory support
of in-game music on all titles. That's why Sony leaves it to the devs and it's the only way to get around it; they just enabled it to be used in a FW update.

I jumped into the skate 2 demo and went into party mode. I didn't see any skipping and I played for about 6 minutes... if you have played the skate 2 demo before you may have noticed some skipping in that time - I did.
Anyone else see this change?

» HDD access and ability to delete data?
I think it means that you can like delete messages, photos, etc. while playing a game. Before you could browse the XMB and see your music, but you couldn't delete them...

i think you still can watch videos playback on the xmb but only if those are online videos and you're watching them in the internet browser, i'm not sure if blu-ray and dvd videos still play in the background or not.

» BD THEME
So for example if it was the Dark Knight once we start the movie and we go into the Special Features on the disc there will be a Playstation 3 Theme opition and when you click on it, it will ask you if you want to download the theme to your PS3 & when you click yes it download’s and installs the theme for you & even chooses the theme for you so once you are finished watching the movie when you go back to the XMB it will have that theme already applied.

» delete during playback...
I've just noticed you can now delete music while playing music (obviously not deleting what you are currently playing)
Previously, the music would stop when you select and delete something else.

» Excellent *evil genius face*
HDD access support in games mean that someone *cough* Paradox *cough* will probably figure out some way to access the internal HDD for doing wicked things. Don't expect to see anything right now though since nobody has really figured out how to poke around in there but still, this extended support means it might be possible to find a new exploit. Here's to high hopes.
BTW, hey i'm not supporting piracy. I strongly believe that you should support your console by BUYING games for it. I just believe you should be able to develop for the system as long as it's within tolerance and respect for the people who worked very hard to make the console that we all love. Emulators of course would be fantastic. I'm not bothering with running Linux on my system. I tried this once and it was so slow that it made my eyes bleed. Such a waste of a powerful console to lock up the RSX chip and the other SPU's. Why Sony? Why?
