The PS3 Folding@Home client was updated earlier this week, enabling several new features.

According to the F@H News page, version 1.2 added the following:

•  Remote access via PSP. You can check on your PS3’s folding progress via your PSP. Why? I am not sure, but sounds pretty cool. Sort of.
• Screensaver mode, consumes less power and increase performance for the simulation
• Advanced Participation Mode: only recommended to users that fold at least 8 hours a day…perhaps the equivalent of the > 5MB proteins for the PC version…more points?!
• More cores supported for simulation. Meaning more projects can be done by the powerful PS3s, which is just great news for the researchers.

Happy foldings =)
