They have put their employees and experts on the new models that will attract the customers.
So, to use some of this valuable expert time without employing new people to an older model, which works at 70 to 80% is a big waste of time and energy. I think Jinke will not give us more support for this device and will drive us to the new models to make more money, which will have many of the features we request. Otherwise, there are dozens of good advices in these forums under many topics and I am sure RobertB has taken note of them carefully. So the company knows exactly what the customer wants. But they will not do it. That's why we'll have to few new firmwares from now on.
If only we had some talented geeks or "hackers" to play with this device and bring us custom firmwares.

Dear All:
Jinke is still hard at work but, yes, CES slowed things down a bit.
There are more firmware upgrades in the hopper; and zero indication anything is being put off. You have to remember that firmware upgrades are not supposed to me monthly. They come when enough changes have been engineered. I know they are working on the dictionary and that is not so easy to do right.
You are getting frustrated, my friend, over them missing a schedule that was never scheduled. They come out when they are ready. We have just been fortunate to have them about once a month in the past.
There is no falling off for the desire to make better!
