Sony Computer Entertainment America has dished up some details for the next PS3 update, as well as confirming that direct access to the PlayStation store is coming soon for PSP owners over there.

First up, support for upcoming SCEA Bluetooth headset. We'll let Sony give you the meat - included will be options "such as an on-screen indicator that shows volume, battery charge, and mute functions, as well as a High Quality (HQ) mode, which utilizes advanced wireless technologies and the Headset's dual-microphone design to enable clear and wide-band wireless voice communication with PS3 system."

Also in there will be functionality that will enable PS3 users to grab screens in titles that support the mode then share them with the world. Expect details of which games soon...

The Trophy system is also getting a touch up. Sony states, "When players acquire a Trophy, the in-game notification will now include the specific Trophy icon created by the developer, while more intuitive options for comparing Trophies with friends have been added, including an icon to represent the Trophy level."

Other features include thumbnails for videos to make scene searching easier, direct linking from the information board to the PlayStation Store and power saving options to make your PS3 automatically shut down when it's been inactive for a while.

Aside from direct access to the PlayStation Store (which SPOnG told you about last week), PSP owners will get a new QWERTY on-screen keyboard to make web browsing easier and a sleep timer for music playback (which will turn the PSP off after a set amount of time). Also included will be increased video out functionality, of which Sony tells us, "The PSP-2000's video-out feature will be able to display classic PlayStation(R) format titles at the full-screen size of the TV that the PSP is connected to; the feature also will support interlace displays."

Sony isn't saying exactly when the updates are coming either in the States or over here, but don't expect them to take too long.
