However, don't get celebrating just yet, as apparently Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) recently contacted Kotaku to deny that this feature would be available with the next firmware update, so we can probably scratch this one too. The rumors may have started as a result of the CES 2008 demonstration of this exact feature and Sony's announcement then that the feature would arrive "with" BD Live, so at least it was probably a good guess and not just another baseless rumor.
The update makes the PlayStation 3 (PS3) technically the first Profile 2.0 Blu-ray player, providing support for Internet content amongst other extra features. It also improves the support for DivX and WMV playback, and will provide new Internet browser and additional A/V settings.
