No idea what's new, but my 3DS asked me to update when I tried going to the eShop.
Probably to do with either ridge racer's bug, or Club Nintendo phishing.

A correction for the screen freeze symptom experienced in the Ridge Racer 3D game

You can receive automatic updates when a wireless internet connection is available. When the download is complete, you will receive a dialog on the HOME Menu detailing the steps to install the update
 
I just updated here too. 2.1.0-3U here in the states. No noticable differences to me yet.

Edit: For everyone's info, it was not an automatic update, it prompted first.
 
Then it's probably not the phishing thing as that was a European problem only.
 
Possibly just a fix for the Ridge Racer bug. Didn't they say it would be available 'later' this month?

edit -- Changelog:

Just an interesting side-note, if you parental controls enabled (even with no restrictions set), the system will ask for a pin before the update starts.

That could be a nice feature to keep people from accidentally updating your system.

BTW-that was a fast update!

They said mid-June and it's exactly mid June.
 
The fact that a firmware update fixed a game bug shows that Nintendo's not doing the whole EVERYTHING MUST BE SEPARATE they did on the Wii. This is good news in that if the 3DS is hacked people will be able to code lots of interesting things and this might allow easier exploits... but is bad in that it'd likely mean more security attempts (though how well they'll work I won't guess).
 
I loved how I got the notification via SpotPass about this update, because it said a new, recommended update had been release on June 16 (today), and was version number 2.0.0-2E. Oh man, I was confused for ages, until I looked at 3Dbrew and saw that there was indeed a new update - Nintendo just failed at getting the details of their own software correct.
