Sony: PSN maintenance next week

Sony has announced planned PSN maintenance for this coming Tuesday, 31st May.

The service will be offline from 7pm that evening until 1am Wednesday morning, wrote Sony Community Team member "RabidWalker" on the European PS community forum.

During that time you won't be able to use:

• PC Registration
• Console Storefront
• PS3 Account Management
• PS3 Network Account Registration
• PSP Network Account Registration
• Qriocity Account Management

However, if you're already signed in you will stay connected. You won't be able to use the above services, though.

The post doesn't mention PlayStation Store. Will the PS3's virtual shop finally re-open on that day?
