On Monday Sony detailed the new Sony PS3 2.50 firmware, but apparently forgot to mention that the new system update is bringing Macromedia Flash Player 9 support to the PS3 browser.
Now you can watch videos on the Sony Playstation blog and of course anywhere else that uses Flash for video on the PS3.

As reported firmware 2.50 for the Sony PS3 offers several improvements. The 2.50 PS3 firmware brings support for the new PS3 Bluetooth headset. Other enhancements and improvements of the new PS3 firmware include PlayStation Trophies, interface enhancements, Friend status, video, Playstation Store, Power Save Settings, Background download, and ingame screenshots.
The new Sony PS3 firmware 2.50 is available now on the Playstation Network.
