As I'm getting to my 5th attempt trying to install Ermine, while reading through the many Ermine posts, I figure we might as well have one thread to collect specifically information and experiences in updating/downgrading only. So to get the ball rolling:

Update to Ermine:
1) Confirm that you want to receive it by logging into your entourage store account and going to this page:
https://www.entourageedge.com/customer/account/
At the top will be a message in red telling you it's available and whether you want to participate -> follow the instructions until it confirms that you are participating (This may also work from the Store app)
2) On your Edge, launch the Update app from the pull-out tray. It will tell you an update is available and you can choose to proceed. Follow the instructions and wait until it's done (if you're lucky)

Notes:
- There is no separate, self-contained update file available at this time.
- You know you have it because the main screen has now a big green lock that you need to slide over to start using the Edge. Under Settings - About Edge, it will clearly state under "Build number" ERMINE-0.9 (as opposed to stating DINGO-x.xx)

Downgrade back to Dingo:
1) Download the required firmware file from the link / follow the instructions on this page:
https://www.entourageedge.com/suppor...barticleid=263
2) To avoid being offered the update again, go to the same page as for the update:
https://www.entourageedge.com/customer/account/
But this time click on the link to cancel participation in the BETA that you previously agreed to.

Notes:
- I can confirm that the update.golden.zip and instructions above work, I was able to get back to Firmware 1.6 / Build Number DINGO-1.13
