Not sure if you guys saw these screenshots. Looks like the PS3 is getting a weather and news app that uses the earth visualization.
What caught my attention is the look of what i assume is the browser being used in the screenshot below, it just does not seem like it is Access Netfront, i really hope they have dropped that crap and have a better browser coming out.

Oops, I just posted this right after you I guess. Yeah, it does look the browser is being used to pull up the news stories.
