PlayStation 3 Firmware (v3.10) Update Preview:

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2009/11/playstation-3-firmware-v3-10-update/

Posted by Eric Lempel // Director, PlayStation Network Operations

Hi everyone, here’s an early peek at PlayStation 3 (PS3) firmware update (v3.10). The latest update incorporates Facebook into the PS3 experience. By linking your PlayStation Network account to your Facebook account, you will have the option for the PS3 to automatically update your Facebook News Feed with Trophy and PlayStation Store activity. This update also enables developers to set specific criteria in their titles to publish additional game information to your News Feed. You can then check out your updates, and those of your friends, on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media favorites through the PS3’s built-in web browser.

This is just the beginning of our integration with Facebook and we are looking forward to adding new features enhancing the experience in future updates.

Additional highlights from update 3.10 include:

* The Photo category on the XMB has been revamped to make it easier to see more of your photos stored on the PS3.
* The PSN Friends List has been modified based on feedback we received after update 3.00. Additionally, you can now choose a color for your PSN ID on the XMB.

Doesn't look like anything useful to me.
I'd really like them to fix the issues they have with media link.

That Facebook thing seems cool and there are endless possibilities coming off that.

I agree. Would be nice to watch hulu on the television without having to hook the computer up to the tv.

Facebook has a lot of possibilities, but what this does doenst sound too thrilling.
