Sony's released Vita firmware 1.66 after yesterday's pulled attempt thanks to technical problems.

You can download it now. It's a small fix adding the following:

  • A “Notification Alert” option will be added to Settings, so you can toggle alerts on or off
  • “After 10 minutes” will be added to the time options under Power Save Settings
  • An Arrow icon will now appear when PS Vita finds new activities in the LiveArea
  • Caps Lock will be supported in the On Screen Keyboard
