I am pretty sure it will be the same time, I am probably wrong but I'd imagine they would stick the download up and have the PS update path and the downloadable storage path set as the same thing.

This is what I will be doing this time, easy to do and seems a lot quicker than doing it through PS3.

 

For those that don't know how to do it...

 

1. Create a folder on your USB stick called PS3

2. Inside that folder create another folder called UPDATE

3. Download FW 3.0 into UPDATE folder

 

Both the folder names have to be in capitals otherwise your PS3 won't recognise them.

I dont think it will go on the website until the update has been rolled out worldwide,

to stop americans etc updating theirs early
