It says it was manufactured in *September 2010*, but someone online told me that PS3s are updated with the next firmware before you buy them, so even if it was made before 3.55 came out, it had a post-3.55 firmware already.
Is this true? I reaaally want to take it to someone in my city who downgrades systems, but I can't check it with the MiniVerTech thing cause my laptop is acting up. I tried it once, but maybe I did it wrong cause it would say nothing was connected in the USB port.
So is it? It's CECH 2501A and -was- manufactured *months* before 3.55 came out...but "supposedly" in the factory or whatever before they're shipped, they're updated, EVEN though I bought it in the box, new, 2 months before 3.55 came out.
