Question Source for Firmware updates? (recovering from Standby mode)

I haven't found firmware for the Libre Touch ANYWHERE on the Aluratek site ... if anyone has found a source for firmware updates, please share!

The reason I was looking for firmware updates is that coming out of Standby mode doesn't always work on mine. Often, it's just non-responsive, particularly when it's been on Standby for say, any more than 10 to 15 mins. At first I thought the battery had run down, but I've now concluded that's not the case.

By "non-responsive", I mean that pressing the power button for any duration (short or long) has no impact and neither does any action on the touch screen.

Once in this non-responsive state, the only way I've gotten it to come back to life is to plug in the charger - then it recovers, virtually right away. However, if I disconnect the charger immediately, I can see the battery icon is fully green (showing full charge) and in fact, I can use the reader again normally (thereby confirming its "dead" behaviour wasn't due to a fully discharged battery).

Has anyone else encountered this?

TIA,
DH
