Developing an application for the PS3

Is it possible to create an application (not a game) on the PS3? I know that there are ways to install Linux and all that but I was hoping there's something which you can just download from the net and run. I'd want the app to run like a server/daemon and be able to access the network.

You can also develop a BD-Java (BD-J) application for PS3.

The only way you can program for the PS3 is through Linux. You don't get access to the "real" SDK unless you can secure a contract with Sony, and you're making a AAA game.

Everyone else have to target Linux.
