I've been hearing it has nothing to do with network connecting everything to do with
firmware bug & hardware revisions older than the last 80GB "fat"/pre-slim models.
That is to say the connecting part is domino effect to the actual problem rather than
the source.
This scream loudly that all DRM measures to prevent save game backup & inter-account
movement of those backups should be removed and a secure method (sony encrypted
archive for example) of allowing local backup/restore of trophies "just in case" both
the console AND the network loose the data. Not too mention if it's not a "it just
works" bonehead console that never has issues, there has to be logs & diagnostic
methods exposed, but of course Sony is too busy with DRM to worry about giving the
customer what they paid for!
Sony stock actually finished up Monday, surprising.

Sony has bricked their PSN Network. Talk about screwup on a mammoth
scale. If your PS3 connects, you'll lose all your trophies, save
points, and oh yes the ability to get online.
Great! Sony expects a solution in 24 hours.
