be interesting to see if you are able to load the new firmware, I followed all instructions and I wasn't able to get it to recognize that there was anything on the micro sd

anyone else had any luck

There's a thread about this in the electronics forum that addresses this issue. It has to do with the size of the SD card and how it's formatted. Go there for all the answers.

Its said is a wireless communication update "Improves wireless communication quality."

Go to "System Menu" then "Information"

I just got my 4PX and it's firmware is ver 1.0 E. The update is ver 1.1 so I'll update it when I get a chance.
