Last update June 23, 2011. A little less than two months. Yes, it updates more often than either other system, but it's either extra security or they're actually adding additional features to make the console better.
For Playstation Plus members. There is now a feature that you can auto upload games of your choosing to your data storage each time you save the game(or each time you do the automatic updates, don't remember which.) If Sony didn't fix the data storage working for non PSN Plus subscribers I'd still be able to use that awesome feature. I'm not paying $50 a year to use it though.
There's a new menu on the XMB called TV/Video services, which wasn't really needed but whatever.
3D support for additional features(useless if you don't own a 3DTV, lossless audio on Bluray, and 3D pictures can be viewed.
After a system update, I jump over to Wikipedia to view the list of 'what did that just do'.

Mika: Where are you taking me, Gillian?
Gillian: To look at videos on YouTube...
Mika: *sigh* No more videos of a drunk Harry dancing with a dead Snatcher...
Giliian: Nope, it's better...Its LiquidPolicenauts YouTube Videos!
Gillian: And after that, you should also visit
The Policenauts Paradise and Snatcher Shrine
What's the point of "TV/Video Services"??
I'm pretty sure the biggest items were the trophy and game save features. Everything's going to be stored in the cloud from now on. Got to give Sony credit for that one. M$ needs to get their shit together and allow uploading of save files now!

There was a new update put out yesterday, but no word on what it added/subtracted yet. Aside from 'improves stability'.
puts a stop to being able to downgrade firmware is whats being disussed in the PS3 modding community
The PSN has been a bit buggy for the last few hours and there are a few stories flying about on how the update is causing systems to yellow light. So, same shit that happens every time the PS3 is updated.
I'm not gonna complain about too much updating, when it seems like Nintendo hasn't updated the Wii in a year or so. Come on Nintendo, let me see the flashing blue light, time for a major update already!
It was never a big issue with me. I don't have a wifi modem, so connecting the PS3 online basically means no internet to the PC. So, I'll only connect it if I plan on getting something off the PSN. Otherwise I don't bother.
My Wii was never up to date up till I finally modded. Thing was always too buggy to get a decent signal so I could never download games, let alone updates.
A thread about PS3 having a lot of firmware updates?
Don't we already have a "dead horse" thread going here?
