I expect this has been answered, but when I started by following the string of links that took me to Downloads, I came to where I picked the type of device (PDN vs picture frame, etc. -- which is the top choice, btw) and THEN it went to a page with three choices: U.S., Canadian, and Netherlands. After I picked the appropriate country it then took me to where that link does. So, if you start at the beginning and not the above link, you may find what you need.
This should be the page with the three choices: Blop

Hope this helps.

I have a question about the Firmware Update noted above, though. I have a BLACK PDN 7 from QVC (that distinction seems to matter sometimes). And I have spent approx. 9 hours installing and installing the new FW from the Pandigital site (as noted on the links above). Prior to this I had the 11/23/2010 version. And this next one is supposed to provide "Android Media Tablet functionality". Everything goes as planned until I press Power On and Volume+ but I notice that it still indicates (each and every time) that I have the 11/23/2010 version. And naturally, my screens look nothing like the "new" versions noted on the screen shots listed on the Pandigital site (no apps below the reader, etc.). Help? Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? I'm following each step precisely.

Thanks all.

UPDATE: On the umpteenth try, I changed the name of the file I had in the PDN from whatever string of numbers and letters that ended with 2010_11_23 or whatever to and so the new Update exe file didn't find it and started from scratch -- which was where I managed to see that what I have been downloading is labeled 6.0.0. And if THAT is the latest, then it is no different than what I had -- which is odd given all they said about the new "Android Media Tablet functionality" and that my screens are no different either. I am really grumpy now.
