None that I recall.  We have done quite a few firmware updates with these 
switches.  None this past year, but we were going to do some over the Christmas 
holidays to some of our clients.
We exclusively deal with HP (refurb) if we can for all of our clients except 
where something is already in place.  I will know real quick if there is an 
issue.  When I get in on Monday I will get you the actual model number of the 
type we have in them now.

Hang, Greg, any issues around ProCurve firmware updates rendering them 
unrecognized ?  Obviously HP do "something" to lock out non-HP SFPs.

Same here. I have purchased a bunch of modules from a different source that 
were noted as 100% compatible and had no issues.

Assuming the source is reputable that would be the way to go.

I wouldn't go with "compatible" SFPs unless the source will guarantee
100% HP compatibility - HP switches are VERY VERY picky about the SFPs -
the devil is in the details, but generally speaking they will refuse to
work with generic gigabit SFPs. Their formerly-3com offerings might be
more lenient.
