Update 4.46 fixes the problems of 4.45

Sony has released a new firmware update for PS3. This follows a number of complaints that the previous version was bricking some consoles by totally removing the XMB. Obviously, you can't navigate through PS3's functions without the XMB... Whoops.

What is actually in the system update? Not much. General improvements to make your PS3 run more smoothly, and the option to turn off Trophy notifications.
