(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); In not-so-surprising news, the crew over at the other DH -- DemonHades -- dropped insider knowledge on the latest 3.70 firmware. And of course there is more than meets the eye; 3.70 uses new encryption/decryption keys and also patches certain vulnerabilities that Cobra USB took advantage of, making 3.70 more secure than previous firmware versions. Back to square one?

Sony is setting to release PS3 firmware version 3.70 -- and it'll probably be available through System Update real soon (it's out; see update). So what does 3.70 bring to the game?

Well here's the deal, so says it Mr. Eric Lempel, VP of Sony Network Entertainment:

To make things easier for PlayStation Plus subscribers, we’ve added the option to automate two existing features. The [Automatic Download] feature will now be called [Automatic Update] as a result of these new options.

A new auto upload function for online save data back-up will be added to make it easier to back-up your game save data. Under (Game), select the game for which you want to automatically upload saved data, and then press the Triangle button.
Also, Trophies will now sync automatically at the timing of Auto Download.
That's cool, 'bout time automatic trophy sync'ing made its way here; and it's like Sony read my mind, automatic game saving to their cloud makes perfect sense. Silly both those features are for PS+ members only though.

And in an attempt to up sales and rentals, Sony is introducing this feature, which lets you spam your PSN friends with links to games and videos:

A new recommendation function will be added that enables you to share your recommendations for PlayStation Store items, such as games and videos, with PlayStation Network friends. You will be able to send messages with a store link from the product pages within the PlayStation Store.

-----

And lastly:

Due to the increase in video applications being offered on PS3, we are adding a new category on the XMB called TV/Video Services. This category will include video applications such as Netflix, Hulu PLUS, and VUDU.

You’ll be able to find and download all of the video applications available on PS3 directly from this new XMB category.
A folder labeled “My Channels” within this category will allow you to easily access your downloaded applications.
Any videos downloaded from the PlayStation store will continue to be placed in the existing Video category on the XMB
Two updates for all of you enjoying Blu-ray 3D movies on PS3:

3D support will now be available when accessing Java-based special features on Blu-Ray
DTS-HD MA, DTS-HD HR decoding/bit stream output (or lossless audio) will be supported while playing Blu-ray 3D movies.
3D digital photos in MPO format can now be viewed in 3D on the XMB and in the Photo Gallery app.
Fair 'nuff, that's cool too, I guess... Too bad Hulu Plus and VUDU aren't available here in Canada ... unless you have a working US proxy or VPN, which I do ... anyone care to share their account with me?

Now cue the age-old question: "Where's CFW <insert latest firmware version here>?"

Update: It's out and it's mandatory -- PS3 Firmware 3.70!
