Lately after the launching of firmware v3.00, people have been having freezing issues, and other bugs.
Yesterday on the PS Blog, Sony announced that they are well aware of the issues, and that they are looking into it, and will release an update as soon as possible.

No I think thats there to stay, because with a video in the background it might be hard to see without it.

I've never had a freezing issue on the PS3 FW 3.00

Mine froze up yesterday while playing a game for like 10 seconds hadn't done it before the update wasn't that big a deal though. But can't wait for the patch regardless. Over all i love the new changes in this firmware.

I think they're talking about the internet browser freezing it's safe to say that every time i use the internet browser it will freeze. mostly on youtube. sometimes you can escape the freeze by exiting to the xmb but the "busy" indicator says its doing something and the controller is non responsive forcing you to turn it off by holding the power button.

Lol some have it... Some don't. But that grey box is just outright gay and ugly!!

i heard that everybody got their ps3 froze when playing Uncharted.

About the Update: I hope there will have backward compatibility. I want to play Burnout Revenge on PS3!
