You got the same model and fw as me =P
The only way to install a CFW is to downgrade it to 3.55 first, and the only way to do that is using a hardware flasher. Google "E3 flasher", or search around the forums for more information.

Somebody bricked (i think) already with E3's one.
Best solution = Wait a little more.

Someone more experienced than me will lend you a hand on this @Octan3

You can get E3 flasher on modchipcentral or any other site. Like @hostile666 said.

I like my PS3, but based on the tutorials, youll have to use a hardware flasher to downgrade in order to upgrade to a CFW like Rogero CFW 4.30 v1.00.
