Ah Ha......

I have just found out that you can not load new firmware off a card that has been formatted for FAT32 even though it will work just fine for reading books off of. This is something that either needs to be addressed in a future firmware update or needs to be posted prominently in the F.A.Q. and the instructions for doing a firmware update...

Apparently when I pulled out this card to use with the PP instead of the camera it was formatted FAT16. I had to reformat when I was moving books around and seing witch was faster USB to PP or dedicated card reader I scrambled the card by not powering off the PP before removing the card and set it for FAT32 that time.
