PS3 Firmware v3.0 to be the last major update this year

Apparently, the upcoming v3.0 firmware for PlayStation 3 is going to be the last major firmware update for 2009, according to PlayStation Network Director of Operations, Eric Lempel.

“You know, I wouldn’t say that or sure just yet because we are working on some things,” Lempel told G4. “But this is a big and significant update, so you would be correct to assume that [it’s the last major update for 2009].”

There will most likely be some tiny updates following after v3.0. That means if you’re still waiting for cross-game chat like me, there’s still hope that they’ll release an update with only that feature after v3.0.
