Jiontech provides this information for those who contact them for support, they just don't notify current owners that is exists. I think you will find that people who own the device and who are having problems appreciate being able to update their firmware - especially since the Restore function doesn't work (Control Panel > Restore).
Or am I misunderstanding your point?

I agree Katelyn. I think one of the reasons why Jointech hasn't announced the update is because they don't want non-owners to have access to the files. I wrote them the same time I had PM'd you and they sent me the links to the updates. The updates worked well and I am so glad that you gave me a heads up on this.
While the JE series do run Win CE they also have the JTOS. And I think that may have something to do with how Win CE operates. IDK, I am not a programmer. That is just a guess. The main thing is that if the directions are followed, the upgrade should be safe. Another thing to consider that if the user does nothing, then how can the problems be solved? I thnk that whether or not to upgrade to fix problems is up to the owner, not others who may not actually have knowledge of the JE100/JE200 specifically.
Again, Thanks Katelyn for sharing that valuable information
! Just another reason why I love this forum.
One good thing after upgrading my JE200 is that I can actually use my 8gb card. However, it doesn't solve the card not being seen after the system has been put in sleep mode. I had been thinking about putting up an review update on the 200, but I have actually been reading a book for a change. I own quite a few ebook devices and have spent the last couple of weeks updating them all
.
So are you happier with your JE100? I saw a post that indicated that you might sell it. I hope not.
