It looks like the PlayStation 3 version of Netflix has a new feature that I’ve always considered missing on all versions of Netflix on any console – the search option. On the PS3, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii, you could not search for a specific movie title from the Netflix application. You had to do your movie searches on the Netflix website and then add to instant queue so it would show up in the app.

Not any longer, or at least not anymore for the PlayStation 3 version. You see, the PS3 version has been updated to include searches from within the app. You still have to use the Netflix disc to play movies, but now, it has the 1 function none of the other console versions have – search.
