Improved PS3 Firmware 2.41 Online Now
It appears that the on again off again love affair between PS3 owners and their 2.40 firmware update is back on again — in the form of 2.41. Hopefully, this time it will last.
According a post by Eric Lempel, Director of PlayStation Network Operations, on the Official PlayStation blog, the 2.40 firmware update issues have been resolved and the update will be back online “shortly”.
“Hi, everyone. As many of you know, we released PS3 firmware update v2.40 last week, but had to take it offline temporarily because, for a limited number of users, the XMB wouldn’t display after the update was installed. We’ve been able to fix the problem, and I’m happy to report that firmware update v2.41 will be released shortly.
We want to extend our apologies to the PlayStation community for any inconvenience. Now we’ll be looking forward to seeing everyone online and racking up those trophies!”
We believed that the update would occur sometime this week, and wile I have not personally downloaded it yet, I have received several email tips from readers confirming that it is back online. Thanks to all who emailed.
