I just want to clarify that this upcoming firmware update isn’t related to GTA IV. For those of you who may still have an issue playing the game on your PS3, we have identified a solution that should resolve the issue. You can contact SCEA Consumer Services for support — their contact info and hours of service, as well as more information on this issue, are available in our Knowledge Center (http://playstation.custhelp.com/).

Only does something for the Japanese, although we can all update by manually searching for new updates...

Explained here - http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/09/16/...re-update-v242/

My guess is its something to do with the Japanese Home beta, or maybe even something to do with the LBP beta?

version 2.52 is available now

I was just performing a backup onto a 120GB portable HDD (formatted FAT32 using Acronis) and it got to about 3% when an error came up saying that it could not access the disc, then it said that a system software update was needed!

Install of update has now finished and is showing that I have version 2.52 :)

giving the backup another go now.
