Indeed there is and I am certainly glad that I am sticking with 1.32. The only thing stopping me now would be an accidental update by me friend or parent, not sure how that would happen but I would be angry.

Looks like a non-update, however since I enjoy playing my PS3 online, and with the replay value intrinsic in multiplayer, I'll keep upgrading my PS3 so that I can continue to play with others. I may screw myself out of the "3.xx OE" of PS3 hacks, but as I'm looking forward to retail releases, as opposed to the releases for the PSP, I'll need to keep the latest firmware anyhow.

I've still got my 250gb PS2 when I feel like homebrew on the bigscreen, and linux running for much of what I please on the PS3. Maybe I'll stop upgrading if something worthwhile comes along for homebrew, and wait for the downgraders to catch up.
