ps3 sony beta testers wants
Sony is now recruiting beta testers for PlayStation Home, the virtual world that PS3 users will use to interact with each other—and try to have virtual sex. They will invite 10,000 users from today to August 11, with the beta starting later in the month. The beta will include only a limited number of places, including a Game Venue developed in collaboration with Namco, where you would be able to play Pac-Man, Galaga, and DigDug. All of them look very nice and polished, however:

Sony's looking for members of the PlayStation community who'd like to take part in beta tests for upcoming PS3 titles. According to the company, "you do not need to technically minded"; they're looking for a variety of people with differing amounts of technical expertise to help them test the games. That..kind of sounds like you need to be technically minded. But anyway, they do require flexibility. No, contorting yourself into a pretzel will not help you with this, they simply mean you'll have to give up some evenings to help out with certain "Test Nights" and general testing.

Bad news spreads fast in today's world, so when Sony released the 2.40 PS3 firmware update last week it wasn't long before reports of problems started to emerge, with some being unlucky enough to brick their console with the update. Sony therefore made the decision to take down the 2.40 update while they ironed out the problems, with the result being today's 2.41 firmware. Sony are now confident that the issues with 2.40 have been resolved, and have extended their apologies to the Playstation community for any inconvenience caused. 2.41 doesn't add any additional features over 2.40, and Sony hasn't said what it will do about the consoles that were bricked by the 2.40 firmware yet.

Sony's just announced a video service for their PS3 called VidZone, which somehow offers up free music and videos, albeit only in PAL regions for the time being. It'll allow you to streaming unlimited music on demand for free, but it's unclear whether it'll be ad-supported, or whether the catalog will be full of only Sony BMG tracks, or whether these are horrible tracks that nobody wants to hear anyway. We'll update with more info when we get it, but this is separate from the current PSN service which already lets you buy and rent movies (which is shown in the screenshot above). [Maxconsole]

Sony still isn't ready to open its online virtual world, PlayStation Home, to the masses, but this post on the official PlayStation Blog announces their next planned expansion of the closed beta test at the end of the month. All current beta testers will be included in the expanded beta with additional slots being opened up for an influx of new gamers to get in on the action (or inaction, since decorating your apartment and playing chess doesn't seem very action-y).

"By contrast, the PS3 has had support for running Linux since before it was released, and Sony has made support code and packages widely available. The "Cell addons" CD released around the system's launch included direct support for Fedora 5 and 6, but it also provided all the files needed for other distributions to develop PS3 ports. As a result, Fedora 7 simply works on the PS3 without the need for a separate CD, although you still need to use the Sony downloads to install the bootloader. The add-on software CD (see Resources) continues to get updates with new kernel versions."
