Got my US 60gb PS3 yesterday and got problems installing the latest firmware leaving my machine for dead now 
Of course Sony EU can't do a thing about it. The only option I have found so far is described at http://boardsus.playstation.com/pla...?board.id=psnetwork&message.id=252645#M252645
I unmounted all the system, and saw that the flat cable from the wireless board was released. I decided to take the motherboard battery off. I thought that maybe the system will erase its memory and start everything from the beginning. Then U have mounted it back and made sure that the flat cable from wireless board was firmly locked. I turned the system on and it completed the update work 100%. Now I have my PS3 back.
I think that this 8002f1c1 error message shows you that there is some part of the system (hardware) failure during the update process. Now I opened the PS3 a bit, but that's a helluva complex process and I'm doubt to continue by my own. What I'd like to know is where I can find this battery on the US 60gb.
