Does anyone know the update notes, though? I'm sure it should fix some issues from the previous update, but I'm kinda afraid as to download+install it...

It does absolutely nothing unless you own a Japanese PS3 and you live in Japan. It's not mandatory for anyone else, and I'm not going to waste an hour downloading and another 20 minutes installing for something that's of no use to me.

Yeah, just found this. Hi, everyone, I wanted to give you a heads up about PS3 firmware update (v2.43). Unlike previous updates, firmware v2.43 is specific to the Japan region, and only PS3 users there will be required to install the update. PS3 users in all other regions will not be prompted to download v2.43. However, if you manually initiate a firmware update by clicking on ?System Update? under the XMB?s Settings icon, the v2.43 update will be available, regardless of where you are located. Users outside of Japan do not need to perform this update if your PS3 system software is on version v2.41 or later. However if you do perform the update, it will not cause any issues with your system or add any new functionality. Source: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/09/16/ps3-firmware-update-v242/ I rather play it safe and NOT download it. I've not had any issues with 2.42... I don't want this one to mess me up. Weird though, makes me wonder WHY they have it up for us, then, if it does nothng...

I'm the same now, although I've never had any firmware problems after the 2.40 fiasco I like to leave them for a few days just to be safe.
