My friend's got 3.55 CFW and he's online.

Lolwut?

If he hasn't turned off his PS3 since the update was released, his system should still be able to access the internet. ie: My bro was on normal 3.55 online for a few hours after the update released.

Correction, he had to sign out and that was all, as soon as you clicked sign out, you had to update or no online... No system turn off required.

there is many reports of ps3's which had cfw 3.55 (any ver) and upgraded straight to 3.56, are now bricked
many people are urging to reinstall 3.55 ofw from the recovery menu and wipe everything if you plan to go to 3.56 ofw


there is also a rumor circulating that 3.56 disables the ability to install fw updates from external memory
only game discs and psn are the only way to obtain fw updates now
its not confirmed yet

Someone's butt hurt over something.

Even with 'signed' packages or whatever it's called, could Sony really make it so you could only get FW updates from discs/online? Sounds fishy.

its possible

did many people even use the usb update function before the whole hacking thing?

Ive only used it once and that was too install 3.41 to update from 3.15 to allow jailbreak devices to run

Lol okay, we're all pirates. Hell if you ever read this topic, I don't HAVE CFW.

Second, the back up launcher isn't 100%

Most people are using it for homebrew.

There are only a few people using backups and a small amount using hacks.

It's not uncommon to meet cheaters, you lost in the dinosaur era? I bet you download music, hypocrite.
