Edit: Gosh it just occurred to me that this could describe a brick!

I wish they would do an update where I can watch 1080P movie trailers right off Apples website. Now that's an update!

View profile »I have never flashed or updated any electronics like DVD players in my life, I even stopped updating my HD-DVD players. MY pc thats a different story, but with a PS3, I don't want it dead and have to send it in only to be given someone's rejected unit as a replacement. I bought mine new so I would expect a new replacement in return.
