( I don't hit my PS3 too hard, or it will break.)

QUESTIONS, if you will please:
Why does the following happen on PS3:
1. The PS3 menus (messaging, settings, etc) load SO slowly compared to other modern day computers and alike? (My PS3 is 18 months old, downloaded all updates, 160GB)
2. When you are reading a message and you push back, instead of it taking you back just one step (to the Inbox folder), it takes you all the way back to the f*cking main menu (almost). So then you have to go all the way back into it again to read the next message. WHY is it designed like this?
-----------------------------------------------------
What’s the difference between PS3 160GB and 320GB?
I mean what is the space for anyway?
Now the first PS3s were only 20GB. If that was enough then, then why pay for a 320GB version when a 160GB version is already 8 times more space than the first model?
-----------------------------------------------------
How do you know if someone has blocked you on the PSN?
For example, if you sent someone who has blocked you a message, they obviously won’t receive it. But would it appear to you that they had received it or would it be bounced back to you?

1. Messages load slower the more you have. Settings load slower, the more your hard drive is used.
2. I also hate this, there's nothing we can do unless Sony release a patch to change it.
With a bigger hard drive, the space is for anything you want, like if you purchase games off the PSN store you can store more. If you don't need 320GB then don't get it.
The first model PS3 actually had 60GB, and 20GB was an option for a lower price. I think 20GB is not enough today, considering all the game data and updates. This is why PS3's are at least 160GB.
And, I there's no way to check if someone has blocked you, unless you realize they don't reply all of a sudden.
