Can You Update Firmware On PS3 Like PSP?

HDMI1.3 baby!! ;p

Edit - and if the PS3 gets cracked for homebrew as easily as the PSP was, without need for hardware mods, you can be sure that Sony will release a steady stream of updates adding juicy new features! :D

Unfortunately, the PSP was not necessarily cracked. There was an opening in the original firmware (they forgot to turn on encryption, or something ridiculous like that), and then from there on, I believe it was that developers found ways to exploit the holes from before to find ways into the firmware, either by back-cycling the firmware or else cracking small portions or just finding code that works and trying to replicate that.
