The PSN Is Undergoing Some Routine Maintenance Just Now. Sit Tight.

Sony want you to know, "hey don't worry - we're doing a spot of maintenance". Those of you in Europe, like us, should be back up and running by now (we are) with Sony claiming:

The PlayStation Network is currently undergoing maintenance, which should last until 19:25 tonight. You will not be able to sign into the PlayStation Network during this time. However, if you are already signed into the [span.tagautolink autolink]PSN[/span], either on any of our sites or on your PlayStation 3, you should remain signed in until you choose to sign out.</blockquote>

As for you American types, you should be fine too with the exception of the Playstation Store:

The PlayStation Store is down momentarily for maintenance. The rest of PlayStation Network (PlayStation Home, Friends Lists, Life With PlayStation, trophies, online gaming, etc) are up and running.</blockquote>

Everyone can relax now huh?
