Sony reports a second breach:

(CNN) -- Sony on Tuesday reported another security breach, saying 8,500 user accounts had been compromised.

The company said that Sony Music Entertainment Greece learned about the data breach late Sunday. It affected artist websites where fans can sign up for newsletters.

The sites were taken down immediately, the company said.

The compromised records contained email addresses, phone numbers, user names and passwords.

However, no credit card data was stolen.

Posted from the European PS Blog:

http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2011/05/24/playstation-network-maintenance-later-today/

PlayStation Network will undergo routine maintenance today, between 16:00 BST and 00:00 BST. If you wish to play online during the maintenance, please ensure you sign in to PSN before 16:00.
The latest information I have on PlayStation Store is that we are aiming to have it live by the end of May. Contrary to popular rumours, it will not be reopening tomorrow but we will let you know here as soon as the date is confirmed.

Not sure on how closely in sync they are with the US. For now I'll just expect the worst.

EDIT: US Confirmed.

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/05/24/playstation-network-scheduled-maintenance-today/

PlayStation Network is scheduled to undergo maintenance today, from about 8am until approximately 5pm Pacific time. During this time, registration and Account Management will be inaccessible, including the password reset process. While some users may experience difficulty signing in to PSN, the majority of consumers will be able to play online as well as sign in to external sites that require PSN authentication (like this one).
For those asking about the PlayStation Store, we’re still targeting restoration of all services by the end of this month. Contrary to reports, the Store will not be publishing today.
Stay tuned to the PlayStation Twitter feed for updates and a notice when maintenance has concluded.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Damn. Sony just can't catch a break.

And with that I'm pretty much done believing anything outside of official statements from Sony (although even that has its pitfalls as well).
