1.PS3 Firmware (v3.42) Update
2.The next system software update for the PlayStation 3 (PS3) system will be released on August 19, 2010 (JST), and will disable the USB ports that are available on all PS3 systems, launched in November 2006. Due to security concerns, Sony Computer Entertainment will remove the functionality through the 3.42 system software update.
3.In addition, disabling the USB ports will help ensure that PS3 owners will continue to have access to the broad range of gaming and entertainment content from SCE and its content partners on a more secure system.
4.Consumers and organizations that currently use the USB ports can choose not to upgrade their PS3 systems, although the following features will no longer be available;
5.* Ability to sign in to PlayStation Network and use network features that require signing in to PlayStation Network, such as online features of PS3 games and chat
6.* Playback of PS3 software titles or Blu-ray Disc videos that require PS3 system software version 3.42 or later
7.* Playback of copyright-protected videos that are stored on a media server (when DTCP-IP is enabled under Settings)
8.* Use of new features and improvements that are available on PS3 system software 3.42 or later
9.Additional information about PS3 firmware updates, including v3.42 (once it becomes available), can be found here: You must login or register to view this content.

More likely to block them too, Sony got brains you know

Come the fu*k on shiver

lol please

It's wrong to call people idiots while using incorrect grammar (who, not whom. "Who" is a subject, and "whom" is an object =D)

And yes, this post says that the update (will be) August 16, and right now it's the 26th.

And to all concerned:

If Sony decides to remove USB port functionality, it'd probably just be the ability for things plugged in to the USB ports to write to the system's HDD. You'd still be able to use USB's for charging controllers, using the Eyetoy, and possible saving files to a flash drive (but probably not letting flash drives save files to disc)

definetly a :y: hacking ruins things like games which are fun

Very True and we don't want

Some anonymous person on pastebin is not a valid source. Sorry.
