PS3 System Software Updates - Why so frequent?

What is a cameral?

It is a camera but it becomes a cameral when the fingers do want to listen.

S0 you have a picture of the Netflix icon? You sure you don't just see the ad for Netflix under the Playstation store?

I saw that one too but as you said it was in the ad column. With this one (in the pic I posted) I clicked on it and it actually put me through the software download and everything, right to the point where if I punched in my credit number I would be good to go and start streaming. At no time did it say anything about needing a disc. I stopped right there because I was concerned about the potentially difficult process in trying to cancel the service after the one month free trial period.

If you and John don't see the icon then perhaps it is available in north of the border first, unlikely but possible. By the way, please let me know if you can see the picture in my post#19. May be I did something wrong uploading the picture.

Yes, the icon is only available in Canada right now. It should become available in the US in a future update, but no date has been given. The issue being something legal that they had to work out with I believe Microsoft over the deal with the 360, which is why the whole having to use the disc thing came about for the PS3.

Thanks for telling Mr.Dawg that I wasn't drunk...

Now I have to figure out how come he could not see the screen shot in post#19 yet I can see it, or may be I should assume he's just being him.
