Playstation 3 Question

Sorry in advance if this has been metioned. Right now I'm stationed in Japan and have been thinking about buying a japanese PS3 since they are cheaper here ( around 110 bucks) . My question is can I update it with the U.S. firmware and still work, just like with PSP consoles. Thanks.

PS3s are only $110 U.S. in Japan?

He won't have any trouble playing US discs when he takes it home, Japan and the New World are in the same Blu Ray region.
