2.41 is Live! and Why 2.40 caused some PS3 users trouble

Last night firmware 2.41 for the Sony Playstation 3 was launched on their update servers to the delight of the people who wasn’t fast enough to grab the 2.40 update last Tuesday(PST) night. Some of you probably wanted to download the taken down 2.40 to be rebels and see if it would “brick” your PS3.The reason why it caused a select few to have non-existant XMB problems was because of a ” system administrative data.” Why did this happen? Well after updating to firmware 2.40, a few PS3s could not activate after updating to last weeks latest firmware from Sony. Don’t worry, 2.41 does not do what 2.40 did and it is safe for all of you that did not get a chance to download it can now do so worry free. For those that got caught up in the fiasco, you need to contact Customer Services and a replacement PS3 will be sent.
