According to the Playstation.Blog Life with Playstation is now available. To access this free service you need to first download it by selecting the Folding@Home icon under ‘Network’ on the XMB.
Life with PlayStation provides a stunning interactive globe, a 3D world map that you can twirl around to see live cloud movement courtesy of the University of Wisconsin, combined with up-to-date weather information from the Weather Channel, top news headlines provided by Google news, and live web cam images via the Earth Television Network — all localized to the select city. And why not have your favorite soundtrack playing in the background while you go through your morning ritual (just think, no TV commercials and teasers to find out if you need to bring an umbrella to work)? You’re on your own for your morning caffeine fix.
Here’s a quick run down of all the new features.

For some reason it appear as if the fan is making more noise then it did when it was only folding@home. I don’t know if this is due to the LwP application or due to the 2.43 firmware.
It could be your PS3?
No, prior to this the sound was (way) lower. I know for sure as I had the folding application running a few days ago (prior to the firmware update and LwP application)
Is your PS3 dusty?
No. It’s just like I said, I noticed a sudden increase in fan use compared to a few days prior to the update and application.
Well before the update whenever I used the Folding application my PS3 made a whizzing sound, but after the Life With PlayStation it turned back to normal…
So it’s like every other firmware update on the PS3 with most people nothing happens, some get a slight improvement, other a slight decrease.
Well mine is still broken, so I don’t really know.
