The hotly anticipated Firmware 2.40 is almost upon us. A video was posted on the Official Playstation Blog showing some of it's main features including In-Game Music, the ability to switch between games without exiting a game first, Changing Accessories Settings, Reading and Sending messages and even the new addition of a clock.

Needless to say this is big news. The Blogs activity skyrocketed the moment the video was posted. Within 1 hour the blog received 300 replies.

As always the release date is still 'Soon'.

The next video to be released within the next 2 days will show how the Trophies work.
