Here is the link to the Sony update (if you haven't read it already)

There is no Blu-ray updates. If you read my link above you would see that Sony support does not share your views. So I'm not spending any money on a PS3 until I see a firmware update for the future specs of Blu-ray. I'm not holding my breath...

How about those people who bought a Blu-ray player this year and find out they can't upgrade to Blu-ray 1.1 or 2.0. Ouch....

So where and when is this "magical" sony ps3, blu-ray 1.1 update coming out? It seemed to not be included in the latest 2.0 update and according to sony support they don't know of any update for it. As far as all the poor consumers that spent $300+++ on a BR player "No update for you!" you don't have the necessary internal hardware. Way to treat your customers.

Hey Jackdoe,
Think before I speak? How about actions speak louder than the lies that are sp...

Great. Are you kidding me?

The only reason why Sony has so many updates is because Sony releases product that's not fully ready and the updates are needed. Like Blu-ray... Give me a break Sony is so "Play Behind". At this point I'm not touching the console until Sony releases a software update for Home that includes xbm and Blu-ray 1.1 or 2.0 + a game worth playing. Without both I'll just keep on playing my 360 and wii... I hope others wake up and don't buy the console until it's ready to take a leadership ro...

I have to ask where is the update? How do we know that the PS3 will offer a firmware update for BR 1.1 and beyond? I searched the entire Sony PS3 site. I fired off 2 e-mails to Sony support. I think it would be uber cool if that feature could be added as a firmware update.
Here I am days later and no reply from Sony PS3 support.
I called PS3 support a few nights ago (Call them yourself 800-345-7669). They have no idea if the new 40GB PS3 will support BR 1.1. I confirmed that t...

Where is your proof that the PS3 is more than a BR 1.0?

You got Shmee to waste his last bubble. Now he'll have to logon as Nasim with only 1 bubble.

Better yet do a search on the auction for 200. You'll get 1 hit "2007". I feel real bad for the tool that buys this auction expecting something more than a crapy yellow paint job.

The 1.1 mandate also decrees that all Blu-ray players must hold a minimum 256MB of persistent memory storage, which will help power the picture-in-picture feature. Who know, maybe the PS3's HD will help with this requirement.

Good thing this didn't happen in Florida, but I'm sure Jack Thompson will still be all over it.
