So, is everyone installing it? Or waiting?

Luckily I recently reformatted (after sending in for repair) so I've got nothing to lose I suppose.

Can't get it anymore. I went to update this morning and couldn't

Sony have pulled the update from their servers, as it has bricked a lot of consoles.

Don't worry, over on the official playstation blog (blog.us.playstation.com) they say that if the update installed OK you will have no problems from here on in.
