OK, in an attempt to duplicate yer fail, science, ya know , I tried pressing the
power button and the '>' key ten times before getting the firmware update screen. Apparently, the last two upgrades I've gotten it by sheer luck in 3 tries.

After a lil fiddling I have determined the following: 1) press the '>' key and hold.
2) press the power button for no more than 2 seconds while continuing to hold down the '>', release the power button after two secs. 3) continue holding '>'
for 6 additional seconds, I say 6 because I was saying one, one thousand
two one thousand... and it took me to six one thousand for timing.
This works everytime, I did it three times in a row.
