Sony Sorry for PS3 Firmware Update Cock-Up
The most recent PS3 update, 3.41 - the smaller, more incremental one - has itself been updated, and Sony in the States has apologised for that fact.

Confusingly, the company has not incremented the name of the update - it remains 3.41. So, if you've already installed it, then don't be confused about installing it again.

The official US Playstation blog has issued the following udate:

"Update: For those users who are replacing the PS3 hard disk drive: We have been aware of the symptoms with the system software update 3.41, released on July 27, and that it will cause the update to stop in some occasions while replacing the PlayStation 3 (PS3) Hard Disk Drive (HDD) if the PS3 system is installed with version 3.41.

"To resolve these symptoms, we have released a new version of system software update 3.41 with a very minor change (the version number does not change) on August 2nd. If you are experiencing such symptoms when replacing the HDD of your PS3 system, we kindly ask you to use the latest data and try again. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, and appreciate your understanding and continued support."

So, go get that update to the update - and bear in mind that there's no name change, it's still 3.41.

Tip of the hat to TSA!
