That was probably me. They ASSURED me that they had the "latest" fw on it, so when they handed it over(wasn't in the display area with the WiFi or Sony) the first thing that I did was check, and 'lo, r1.9 MAY20! (OOB fw?)

They also claimed to have them in stock but checking through the Borders.com page showed OOS.

Anyways the 1.9 fw was so clunky that I didn't bother playing around with it much and I suggested that they take some few minutes out of their busy loitering schedule to update their demo unit as more recent fw added a bunch of features and fixes.
