What they did was remove all dictionary's exept the Dutch one so they have to pay less rights for the missing dictionary, only the firmware of the normal T2 and T3 doesn't upgrade the N models, so they never got an update.
As sony announced to stop with the development and selling of the e-readers, I am sure that there will be no upgrade... I have an old 650 here that for sure would not be updated..so I don't know exactly what to do but when the epub 3 would be the standard, a lot of editing and rebuilding I think ?
I have seen some recent ePub be released as ePub 3 when there's 100% no reason to do so. There is no ePub 3 features being used except the NAV ToC and that's covered by the NCX ToC. So really, there aren't many true ePub 3 (ePub that uses features not in ePub 2 in any way) out there for sale. If anyone has the ePub of Unlocked or Lock In (both by John Scalzi), look at the OPF and you'll see that it's ePub 3. Don't buy from Kobo as they sell those as kepub.
