Ssup,

If i bought PS3, once i reached home, i believed i have to update to the newest firmware by myself instead of doing it at Sony branch (where i purchased)? Or perhaps i can ask them to update for me on the spot, then for future updates i will do it myself.

Any ideas guys?

They won't do it for you.

When you try to log into PSN the first time, it will check for latest firmware and will ask you to update it.

If you wanna blame somebody for sony blocking usb devices, then blame it on the imbecile who made pudu jailbreak. All of this wouldn't have happened in the first place if not for some cheap bastards who only want to play pirate games.

you can't download anything from the internet & use it on your ps3. the only thing that works are games & dlc from ps store.

If you don't want to go thru all the hassle of looking for those signs ben mentioned, always buy your ps3 accessories from sony style or sony centres.

could be a problem with your motherboard. your best option will be to send it back to sony for repair and but if your set is not the official my set, then may god bless you.
