you can just save the update to a memory key (jump drive) and plug that into the USB drive on your PS3.

All USB slots are the same size! What fits into one slot will fit into another (yes I'm still talking about USB

).

I know you say you don't want to connect it to the internet but I would advise you to do so as it is much easier.

That just means that the usb is a more updated version of USB as a port. It doesn't change the port interface (the square slot), USB will pretty much be a standard size just like a VGA monitor interface is typically a standard size.

ok thanks its a one size fits all thing.

yup just a matter of data transfer rate you can do with usb 2.0 that you couldn't do with usb 1.1.
