WHAT IF!!!

Yeah. Right. Simplest method for accomplishing this is:

Design the update for the 64MB model. If it runs on the 64MB model, it'll run on the *other* ones!

Of course, this presumes that one has hired and is giving all the support and development tools to MORE THAN ONE programmer.

P.S. Also, if Bookeen cannot make a 64MB firmware update work - even for the mobi version - then Bookeen should do the honorable thing and TELL 64MB owners they're just sh*t-out-of-luck and Bookeen has moved beyond their petty wishes.
