PlayStation Network down all evening

Sony will take the European PlayStation Network down today from 4.05pm UK time through to 3am tomorrow morning.

You won't be able to access the PlayStation Store on either PS3 or PSP, nor any of the account management or registration areas.

If you want to be able to play online during that time then make sure you sign in before 4.05pm.

There's no word on what the maintenance is specifically for, nor whether today's Store update will be affected.
