Well... After playing CoD4 all day, I went back to the XMB and it's finally here version 2.00. It's pretty cool! I though it would be bigger but this is what's inside...

Custom themes – Users can now personalize their XMB by choosing custom themes, which change wallpapers and icons at one time. A variety of themes will be available for download from PLAYSTATION Store and www.playstation.com, including themes related to specific titles or franchises. Users can also create their own themes and share them with their friends. Instructions on how to build personalized themes will be posted soon on www.playstation.com.
*
Music and photo playlists - Users can now create playlists for photos and music stored on their PS3 system. This new feature makes it simple to create personalized soundtracks of favorite songs or share slideshows of favorite photos, all grouped according to the user's preference.
*
PLAYSTATION®Network category - A PLAYSTATION®Network category icon has been added to XMB, where users will now access PLAYSTATION®Store and Account Management settings. PLAYSTATION Network continues to evolve and this dedicated category reflects SCEA's focus on current PLAYSTATION Network offerings, primarily PLAYSTATION Store, and several new initiatives planned for the future. The current Network category icon will continue to include the Remote Play feature, Internet browser, Folding@home™, and online instruction manuals.

Yea, here's the whole story. I was just owing people on Call Of Duty 4 because I'm a Major and most of them are like Sergeants and I get a message from my friend saying, "Did you get 2.0?" I heard that the Playstation Network was going to be down today so the first thing I thought of was 2.0. So I went back to the XMB and checked and BAM! It's there! I'm a little dissapointed because it didn't have more things like returning to the XMB while playing a game as EvilWaterman said.
