This case is btw, quite interesting because of other possibilities it opens. This utility comes with complete "hardware-level" firmware. So it allows for replacing the original bootloader - which in some distributions is modified to prevent users from installing firmware from other distributions...
So it allows one to install arbitrary firmware...
So it might allow to install various branches of firmware on readers purchased from various sources. Not that I advocate this... there are indeed good technical and ethical reasons not to do this. But it is interesting.
