Sony will release PlayStation Portable Firmware 5.50 update with Information Board, Internet search in XMB and other improvements.

Feature listed on Sony Blog:

• Memory Stick improvements – You’ll be able to create and access sub-folders on your Memory Stick PRO Duo for music, videos and photos. Separately, the available space required to download a file from PlayStation Store to your Memory Stick has been reduced significantly.
