According to this

http://www.betanews.com/article/Sony_rereleases_its_problematic_PS3_firmware_update/1215530772

Frimware update can *brick" a PS3. Do you have to pay $150 to get it repaired if the Sony Firmware bricks your PC, its what the artivle seems to imply..

Well duh, just like an xbox update CAN brick an xbox, but they'd seriously have to mess up in testing to do that. I think it happened to PSP one time, I bricked mine, but that was... a different thing. I'm planning on fixing that tomorrow.

And, yeah if it bricks, you may have to pay for it, but probably not if its wide spread.
