>> To update the flash ROM in the card, download the v3 of software from the
>> links on my FAQ and while running OS9, install v3 of the software, and then
>> run the updater.
>> 
>> I have posted disk images of the cd that came with the cards I purchased,
>> the updater is NOT on these disk images. You will need to download the
