I think 1.1.00.15240 is probably the newest. Does it show the Kobo market rather than the Sony one? I think there was only one "Kobo" firmware release. I don't have my PRS-T2 down here in Texas with me. I can check for sure when I get home (not for about a month yet). I didn't realize Sony had dropped support for the T-1, T-2 and (I'm guessing) T3.

Here's a link to the news about updates for these three (after Sony closed down there eReader business.

I'm guessing these were the last firmware updates. (Don't know for sure.) The links no longer go anywhere.

Here's a link to the PRS-T2 firmware from a site called ReByte.

They have updater files for several for several of the Sony Readers, including a newer one then mentioned on the eBook Reader blog for the T1 ( PRS-T1_Updater_1.0.07.05070.exe). They even have the updater for the PRS-505 available (this is the one I already have). (The 300, 600 and 900 don't appear to have updates? Unless it's built into the Reader software?)

No T3, however?

I've downloaded the updaters they have available (I have Linux). I'm guessing the site is okay, but it's always a good idea to be wary, especially if you're using Windows.

Found the T3 update on the Canadian Sony support page...
