Sony’s latest patch for the PlayStation 3 offers some new features for all users that were previously reserved for PlayStation Plus subscribers. Firmware revision 4.50 allows for auto-downloading of updates, the ability to transfer data between the PS3 and Vita via Wi-Fi, and privacy settings that allow selection of whether or not you want to show your trophy collection.
As noted, these were once premium features for PlayStation Plus subscribers — things that could have made the PSN a much better experience for all, years ago.
Update Features :
Auto download of system software updates has been expanded to support all PSN users.
Auto download support of purchases made on the Sony Entertainment Network online store will be made available to all PSN users.
New options for trophy privacy settings allow users to set which trophies are visible.
Data can now be transferred from PS3 to PS Vita using Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection.

Playstation Network is now known as PSN.
The automatic update features must be toggled-on to use via the XMB. This feature is one that made the updating process a much faster affair as you can have the console check for updates while you are sleeping, download them in the background, and then install the next time you log-in.
Good move Sony, but you should have done it about two years ago as a free service for all and you likely wouldn’t have gotten so much bad press about the PSN.
