Diablo 2 saved my PS3?

Sony have pulled the firmware update amid reports that some PS3 owners have had their machines freeze up and refuse to boot after installing the upgrade
  
  


Diablo 2 saved my PS3? Well, possibly. I had planned to download the PS3's latest firmware - you know the one that finally brings many of the 360's features to PS3 - last night. Yup, it's all fun and games round mine. But a recent purchase and re-install of Diablo 2 - inspired by this weekend's D3 announcement - meant I got so distracted by the hacking, slashing and looting that I forgot to switch the PS3 on last night. And judging by reports it looks like I was lucky. Sony have pulled the firmware update amid reports that some PS3 owners have had their machines freeze up after installing the upgrade. There seems to be a fix that involves removing and reformatting your PS3's hard-drive but clearly that isn't an option for more casual users. Anyone here upgraded to 2.40? How was it for you?
