Sony have now allowed developers 70MBs more RAM for development of games on the PS3. Now you may be like how does this affect me? Or that isn't really much is it? Well as Tesco says, every little helps.
Just this small portion of RAM can be used to make the PS3 shine even more over the xbox in terms of performance/graphics [opinion].
Where does it come from? Well it comes from the OS part of the PS3, so that means that it is now limited to 50MB, but this is a games console, not a computer at the end of the say so I don't see this as being a very big problem.

Since the launch of the PS3, we have been continuously making efforts to reinforce our support system to game developers, allowing them to express their creativity freely on the PS3. As part of this support for game development, the size of the PS3 OS memory footprint has been reduced through network update for the game developers.

yeah it would allow them to load more fancier modules and such in the future. Like if PSN ever updated to allow some new feature like cross game chat, we would be able to load it. It doesn't really help with the 'actual' graphics part, if it does it helps load the bigger game image more effectively, which the image could have better quality, thus bigger size which requires more ram to load it up.
So yeah this is sorta a big thing if you know what it can be used for, also 70MB isn't too bad, its more than any PSP has.
