Hopefully the time will soon pass when firmware updates fix critical issues (i.e. bugs) and simply add features that may not be deemed essential. Some people seem to have update-itis and need to have the latest of everything, but I think I have avoided a lot of problems in the past (especially in the world of computers) by following the maxim "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." My K2 is still working quite happily on Rev 2.01 firmware, which has never caused an issue until a few days ago when working on my new program when I wasted half an hour trying to figure why the TQ command didn't work. -- Julian, G4ILO K2 s/n: 392 K3 s/n: ???
