PS3 users reporting 'bricked' systems after 4.45 firmware update
According to the PlayStation Twitter account, the 4.45 update includes trophy notification options and improves system stability - hmm.
We've reached out to Sony to clarify the situation. While the issues don't seem to be affecting all users, it might be wise to stay clear of the update for the time being.
Update: Sony Computer Entertainment sent out the following statement this morning:
"We are aware of reports that the recent PlayStation 3 system software update (version 4.45) has caused the XMB to not display on a small number of PS3 systems. We have temporarily taken 4.45 offline and are investigating the cause of the problem. We will announce when the system update is available for download as soon as possible. We apologise for the inconvenience."

KatsumiArtro Playstation takes weeks to fix a problem they created when Microsoft takes all of about 2 days and they already have a fix.
Sony still fixes the mistakes never the less. Sure, Microsoft is faster but think of the difference between the two services
1. Play Station Network is Free while Microsoft is paid, offering premium service
2. Microsoft is larger in size than Sony Computer Entertainment
That is true, due to the money we spend on Xbox Live Gold we should expect rapid updates!

Really? Did it get fixed with the new update though? Because I didn't hear about those people anymore...
I'm guessing so, because I didn't hear anything about this since then
