PS3 3.15 System Firmware Update

The optional firmware update 3.15 that was released in early December is now a mandatory one. So you procrastinators hop to it.
The update will improve system stability during use of some PlayStation 3 software. It will also allow existing PS3 owners who purchase a new PS3 system to transfer content from their current PS3 to the new system.
Content can be things such as games, game save data, and videos downloaded from PlayStation Network, as well as personal media files (photos, music, videos).
Here's how the Data Transfer Utility works:
Data Transfer Utility
1. Connect both PS3 (A) and PS3 (B) with a LAN cable and connect both PS3 to the TV (using different video input connectors). (Please note, do not unplug any cables when the PS3 power is on.) Turn both the current PS3 (A) and new PS3 (B) on. Please note, firmware (v3.15) must be installed on both systems.
2. On the XMB of PS3 (A), scroll to the Settings category and select [System Settings] and then [Data Transfer Utility]
3. Follow the instructions on-screen and select [1. Transfer data from this system to the other PS3 system.]
4. When PS3 (A) is in standby and ready for transferring data, switch the screen to PS3 (B), scroll to the Settings category on XMB and select [System Settings] and then [Data Transfer Utility]
5. Follow the instructions on-screen and select [2. Transfer from the other PS3 system to this system.]
6. After transferring the data, follow the instructions on-screen.
7. If content that was downloaded from PlayStation Store was transferred as part of this operation, you must activate PS3 (B) before you can use the data. Log in to the PS3 system as the user who owns the content, and then select (PlayStation Network) > (Account Management) > (System Activation) to activate the system.
The most exciting new feature of the 3.15 update is that gamers are now able to play "PSP minis" titles on their PS3 system as well as on their PSP Go. Minis are bite-sized games that offer a more casual experience and are ideal for shorter gameplay sessions.
If you've performed the update in December, there's no need to do anything. If prompted to perform the update, please allow your system to do so upon start-up.
