Update 2: Sony confirms our assumptions. The update improves the operating stability of some online PS3 titles.

Update: Turns out no changelog was provided with the update. There doesn't appear to be any obvious changes to the firmware, so until we receive official word from Sony, we'll just have to assume this is a maintenance release including some minor bug fixes and tweaks. If you happen to find any changes let us know.
