About the only change I've noticed in the update is that the BBC iPlayer now works.
Well it displays a blocky picture
Can't believe there isn't access to the high quality stream.
Anyone else tried it yet?

Not yet, shame about the high quality streams. Have you tried www.ps3iplayer.com?

I've just had a play with it and it seems to work ok. Not the best picture in the world but watchable.
I think that this update is probably only the first step towards full iPlayer compatibility. Hopefully they'll improve the picture quality and then do a full media launch like they did for the Wii. I reckon that Sony would want to put a shortcut on the XMB as well.
I've been using www.ps3iplayer.com for some time. The problem is that it's never been properly supported so was often unavailable. A BBC supported service is definitely a step in the right direction.
