The firmware update provides the user with a text chatting system that lets you chat with up to 15 online friends using the PS3 Wireless Keypad, on-screen keyboard, or other compatible keyboard peripheral. According to the features listed on the PlayStation Blog post, text chat will be accessible while playing PS3 games and chatting in up to three chat rooms at once will also be possible.
This update also makes minor changes to features accessed from the XMB. The XMB is the cross-shaped interface used to access the PlayStation 3 menu. The change will allow you to sort your friends based on their online status and you will also be able to send attachments in email messages with a maximum size of 3MB instead of 1MB.
Other changes this firmware update makes are video related. The update provides you with the ability to back up video files purchased from the PlayStation Store to an external storage device.
