The 3.60 update is here, and it's features include:
<li> Setting the amount of time before a controller turns off after you have stopped using it.
<li> Cloud Storage [PS+ Users only for the time being]: You can now store up to 150MB of date or 1,000 save game files on the cloud. This basically allows gamers access to their saved data on the cloud by logging in. It also allows the back up of copyrighted saved date along with regular saved date.
<li> "Other minor Features"- As broadly stated by Sony.[/FONT]
PS3 hacker Youness Alaoui, better known as KakARoToKS, states that the new firmware has a "completely revamped security architecture model that does not use the exploited and compromised loaders, and therefore unhackable."

Wow, in 3.60, Sony removed all the loaders, no more isoldr/lv1ldr/lv2ldr/appldr.. but they added lv0.2! Seems they found a way to secure ps3.
We already have the metldr key, the thing is that they don’t use metldr anymore, at all!
They can’t update or remove it (metldr), but very surprisingly, they just bypassed it, it’s there but unused..

What that basically means is that the PS3 loads metldr at some point, launching the OS and game loaders, which the hackers were able to bypass. A presentation by fail0verfl0w showed that the metldr can't be changed, meaning the PS3 would be forever defenseless. However, it appears that Sony has come up with a way to bypass metldr. Now, if they properly signed their codes, the PS3 should be once again secured.
