A recent interview with Game Watch Japan (translation) with the Engineers of Sony Computer Entertainment discusses recently released features such as Blu-Ray LIVE. However, one of the pictures taken during the interview of the crew standing by the PlayStation 3 kiosk shows a new icon under the "Settings" icon on the PlayStation 3. You can view that image on the left (click for max size). What can it be? Perhaps we will find out next Thursday during the 2.30 firmware update.
[Something new on the PS3 Settings menu coming soon?]
Update: Thanks to our first commenter, we can debunk this saying that it is the Japanese EdyViewer used to buy content in the PlayStation Store. Video here.

if you zoom in, it looks different. I dont think it is that though it does look similar, i dont see any pattern. Just a square chunk cut out like with 'Message Box'.
nah if you zoom in in paint or something, you can clearly see edy viwer
Hahaha, what the hell did you think it was? It even says Edy Viewer in plain English.
Anybody that has opened the online instruction manual linked to from the XMB will know that this feature has been in the PS3 firmware for months, but only appears on Japanese systems.
