Errr...this update now has made taking photos a lot slower, after taking the shot it takes a bit longer to come back to take a new photo. Which was something awesome with the phone before - you could just keep snapping constantly, but this is no longer possible
There is no noticeable reason for this, file sizes of the photos are the same as before.

1. I've downloaded SE PC Companion 2.01.210 Web.
- other than a local sync (can it with Outlook 2010 32bit?) what does this do?
I believe, the sync is just a gateway to SE's WEB based sync and hence it doesn't sync locally nor does it support sync with outlook. For that you can use MyPhoneExplorer (an app needs to be installed both on your phone and on your PC). Other than that PCC can be used to update the phones software as well as transferring media files to the phone (it automatically converts movies and clips to a format suitable for the phone).

SE does not support MAC's so you have to use third party apps for that such as salling clicker and doubletwist.

-2. I have Android 2.3.3 - is this the latest & greatest? If not is this THE most stable version for Arc?
2.3.3 is the main version number and yes, that i st the latest. However, recently SE released an update to 2.3.3 providing some extra goodies, which is currently what people discuss in this thread. Not sure if that is installed on your device as well (checkout the revision number under Settings|About The Phone).

5. Internal Space shows 280MB Free. Should I be worried and what is THIS used for? (I'm guessing its like BlackBerry where apps are stored on local/internal RAM as Storage for system API access)
This is where apps you install are stored. Most (although not all) apps can also be installed on the SD card if the internal storage (space) is not enough (bear in mind that lot of apps are like 1 MB or smaller).

7. OMFG Man! Application Settings shows a whole boat load of junk running in "Running Services". I have no freakin clue WHAT this junk is ... I almost want to kill everything instinctively. This is where the simplicity of iPhone rules (I don't know what is core system but the system knows what process should run by default and doesn't need to tell me). What is normal and what is NOT?
You don't have to do a slightest thing. Just leave it as is and the OS will do the rest.

3. I've Setup WLAN. Can I search or host media ON/TO the PS3 Slim that I have?
The phone supports DLNA so....
Yes! You can stream the content on your phone to the PS3 by using Mediaserver.

Just saw a user at our Swedish forum Swedroid reporting same thing. Reason for that is not known yet. So far I have only seen 2 describing this problem.

It means can't be assed, though I just tried rebooting it and to no avail. So until they realise another update I guess you'll just have to make do with the gallery and music apps on your homescreen. Yeah pretty annoying
