So I take it this new headset is a successor to the original Wireless Stereo Headset, while the Pulse Elite is still the high-end model?
Seems so yes, although how long before a ps4 iteration is anyones guess.

I just wish they would re-enable twitch PS4 archiving.
I'm sure they're working on these in the order of importance. I would be more upset if the PS4 wasn't released yet because they were working on these features still (but that's just me). I can't wait for the sleep function myself though.That's it? FUCK. What the F are y'all doing over there at Sony. I know you guys care about making money but how about giving your loyal customer base some functions that you have been touting since the Feb reveal? Where is my sleep function?
Where IS THE ABILITY TO PLAY MP3's SONY wtf are you guys doing. This seriously cannot take more than a week to implement or something. I know I'm overreacting but this shit is just ridiculous. My 6 year old TV is a better goddamn mediaplayer than my PS4 is. It's pretty fucking sad really.
We shall anxiously await the next firmware update -_-. Damn you Sony I sold my PS3 months ago to make way for my PS4. Give me some damn basic functions sjeesh.
The PS4 was trying to help you guys. =(Prometheus caused mine to crash as well. Weird.
I'll wait for the official release notes for the update as to what is being added/fixed/changed....
I'm crossing my fingers for application suspending in Standby mode (Did you know the PS4 already has the ability to suspend an application but it only is done when using video apps or trimming videos)
Wonder if Eric Lempell is also the PS4's update firmware guy
Any word on this
That's what I want to know!!
I highly doubt suspend resume would go unannounced, it'll be a major update
Well they only have announced the update is coming along with the official announcment of the new headset...
I want to believe that they will post more details on what the update does (including somethings that were part of the announcement) later today/tomorrow
#PS4 firmware update tomorrow (v1.60) bringing Pulse Headset support, general stability improvements and ability to mute camera.

Did they announce how much these will cost?out tonight or tomorrow?
Did they announce how much these will cost?
Hopefully less than Pulse because the Pulse ones were extremely overpriced, these headsets should cost no more than $100, $120 AT most.
Will Sony ever update the PS3 firmware to show PS4 friends online/what they are playing. Just seems strange that Vita shows all PSN statuses while PS3 excludes PS4.
Tonight US / early morning tomorrow UKout tonight or tomorrow?

What was not stable before ? They never say it. :-(Stability updates are welcome. Hopefully that means some speed improvements as well.
Did it work with the PS3?
Wait and see what the stealth fixes are. Sony tends do fix a lot of things and not put them in the change logs, from past experience on PS3 anyway.
i thought they said no because of the friends limit thing on ps3?
That's a good point. It doesn't make sense to jump from .5 to .6 for headset support and stability fixes. Fingers crossed!
I don't think the naming convention works how you think it does. We don't know how they develop new features, what their priorities are, why they'd wait this long and then have another rumored update in a few weeks. I wouldn't expect more than fixes than what they've said, I'm just saying to wait and see if there are any stealth fixes. I would expect this one to be a smaller update than the one prior to the Japanese launch.
So what new feature does the the Gold headset have? Aesthetics aside, it doesn't seem like it offers anything new over the Pulse Elite. Wished their blog post was more informative. They should do a side-to-side feature grid of the 3 models or something.
