Sony is at it again, they have just released firmware 2.82. Apparently the only change is a security update. Why did they do this? Well, maybe they found a flaw in 2.81, maybe there are some new files for the camera/GPS. Or maybe they are just trying to mess with our heads! 
You will definitely not be able to use homebrew games and applications if you decide to upgrade, and it'll most probably be many, many months till it's cracked. So remember to choose carefully, but whatever you do, have fun! [Download]

i'm looking at the update page at the official playstation (US) site and it still says 2.81. where did you find that update, if it's real? if it does turn out to be real, maybe its for that new loco roco demo that's coming out, the halloween version. and it might also have something to due with 2.81 being decrypted or something, i'm not sure. just would like more info cause i'm skeptical about it as of now.

[edit]
My bet was wrong; you can still decrypt it. Apparently, the only noticeable change is that vsh\module\msvideo_plugin.prx is 128 bytes smaller. Hmm.
