same here. but i was wondering, could someone explain to me what being changed about voice that i keep on hearing?

Here you go...

"Sony Europe has provided the release notes for tomorrow's PS3 firmware update (2.10). It is worth noting that the PSP will also be receiving a firmware update (3.80) tomorrow as well. For the PS3 update - the most notable change is DivX support and Blu-ray Profile 1.1 support has been added. Here are some of the other features:

PS3 Firmware v2.10 features:
* Voice changer - The Voice Changer feature has been added to voice / video chat. Using this feature, you can change the tone of a voice that is input from an audio device such as a microphone. High and low-pitched tones can each be adjusted to five preset levels. You can vary the tone when using voice / video chat under Friends.
* You can now select [Type 3] as an option under Settings > [Music Settings] > [Bitmapping]. This bitmapping process was developed specifically for the PS3TM system to enhance audio playback.
* DivX and VC-1 (WMV) have been added to the types of files that can be played.
* Blu-ray Disc Profile 1.1 is now supported."

WTF is Blu-ray Disc Profile 1.1?email2003

i wonder if the flash player will be updated for the browser?nimuk

I think everything we are hoping for ( In-Game XMB, Flash Upate, Removal of Browser, Ingame F@H" ) Sony are aiming for that release with Home

divX!!!!! nice... and that voice changer thing .. lol.. everyone is gonna sound like a little girl or a goon online now... sweet...

Does that mean PS3 can play .avi files? Or no.WongB

I don't know much about DivX but I believe that is correct.

So with Divx, will i be able to play: .mov , .mpeg, and .wmv files??Gage_Creed

Taken from the last post on page 1:

* DivX and VC-1 (WMV) have been added to the types of files that can be played.

That confirms WMV.

[QUOTE="email2003"]WTF is Blu-ray Disc Profile 1.1?boofa_2001

The ONLY reason I even give a damn about this feature is that supposedly Warner Bros. has been holding out on releasing Batman Begins on blu-ray because BR has been lacking this PiP feature. Hopefully the article is true and it won't be long until WB finally releases BB on blu-ray lol.

The PS3 just keeps getting better and better!nyc05

Ain't that the truth!
