Support for the Guitar hero controllers so i can play GH I and II as it's ment to be played not using the damn sixaxis or PS2 controller.

The ability for more customisation such as wallpapers, Icons etc

Better browser support ie more upto date flash and java as well as Video and Audio support.

Although it doesn't bother too much but having a customisable background would be nice. :D

Being able to open the XMB while in-game, therefore making it possible to play music, read messages, etc without having to quit a game.

Home, and the ability to see what games other people are playing and being able to communicate with them instantly, would be nice too.

The ability to pick my own wallpaper. The option of choosing my own online avatar. More Demos. An internet browser that remembers passwords. AND MORE DEMOS. Also why do I run out of memory on certain pages? Fix that. Umm...I think that's it.

Yah, customize your background like in PSP with pictures (or maybe looping videos?) 

A better way to organize large amounts of files (ie. MP3 management)

a more iTunes like MP3 player where you can make playlists etc

i dont care too much about this but a lot of people do, custom game soundtracks from your mp3 library

this was said before but its a good idea, an official PS3 headset like 360's... i play resistance and motorstorm alot online and there are very few people who actually have headsets.... if sony made a good cheap headset that came with system it would greatly enhance the online experience

DVD upscale would be nice but i dont care too much about this

In game XMB and messaging/voicechat like on Xbox Live

 

Thats all I can think of,  overall though I think sony's been doing a great job with updates lately, we god background downloading when we asked for it, they fixed the jaggies issue with PS2 games, and lately the PSN store has been getting new stuff in every week... not too shabby for no monthly fee.  Plus from now until October when Home comes out, we'll be getting 3 updates 1.8, 1.9, 2.0....  They seem to space it out a bit more compared to Microsoft with the updates (Live gets major updates in Spring and Fall so far)

Sony put a cap on the amount of memory that the browser could use. They didn't want people opening up 40 browsers and bogging the system down.

don't count on three updates. Sony isn't required to go in order, and they haven't followed that pattern yet. Didn't the firmware jump from 1.33 to 1.5?

Customize background, import custom soundtracks into games. I don't need sony headphone and mic set-up because trash talking is not necessary, do your talking with your car or gun....play the game the best you can. Be Ranked then talk in the HOME program.

Who said 40 browsers? I just want to open ESPN. Certain sites, regardless of how many browsers are open, exceed the memory limits.

For update 1.80 I would like a refund of about 200$ to bring the console value to what it really ought to be. I would also like the X360 versions of COD3 and FEAR to be mailed to me with the update so that I don't have to play completely half-assed versions of good games on a console that barely has the support and backing of its manufacturer. Also an honest promise that Sony will hop off its ass and make an effort to make this a competitive console would be nice with 1.80

 

Other than that I'd like XMB accessable even while in game.

I didn't say that you opened 40 browsers. I said that Sony put a cap on the memory that the browser could use so that SOMEBODY couldn't open 40 browsers(I think the max is 6 anyway). Also remember that the PS3's OS only has access to 256MB of the memory. As you can see, a site like ESPN would use up that much memory in no time.

so there couldn't be a possibility that this functionality is currently holding him back from getting a PS3?(i just saw where he posted that he already has one). Just because somebody doesn't have a PS3 doesn't mean they don't have the right to have a "wishlist" for more options.

Better codecs support, XMB wallpaper, better XHTML support in the browser, and region free PS1 and PS2 games. Plus, improved backwards compatibility on PAL PS3.
