Stability Awaits.

In Japan, Sony is beta testing PS4 firmware 3.0. I'm not in the beta myself, but Pocket News has the goods.

“Event” menu allows users to find events related to PlayStation, join them, and/or watch them.
“Community” is added to the “Friends” menu. Allows users to make or join communities.
“Now Playing” is added to “friend,” “community,” “message,” and profile screen that allows you to display/see games you and other members are currently playing. You can request to join their games or request to broadcast the game.
“Message” function being improved. Users can add groups to a favorites list.
