If you get a "Firmware error!" screen of sorts, it means that your jetBook *could* perform the firmware update! In which case, I would suggest finding a friend who has a nice internet connection and a USB port so you can try ECTACO's suggestion. Much faster than an exchange IMO.
OK, Kralik. I've just finished your experiment. I did what you said and left it on for an hour and 35 minutes. Still nothing but the boot-up screen.

I'll call Ectaco first thing in the morning.
