Despite all the rumours of limited background downloads Sony has released this statement to IGN.COM:

We've received word from Sony that you will indeed be able to play games while downloading content in the background. Similar to how downloads on the Xbox 360 works, you'll be able to play games offline while downloads work in the background, and if you hop online your queue will simply pause until you disconnect.

Should've been implemented in the 1st place. At least us in Europe will never have to sit in front of the Ps3 for a long time while it updates or downloads a demo (apart from when we upgrade to 1.6 that is!)
