And in the middle of this there were complaints about them not publishing updates. Complaints about only finding out about an update by looking at forums. There was a 1.2.2 firmware that went out with some units that had SOME of the things they wanted in for 1.3 but people were annoyed they couldn't get it straight from Onyx and got it from the user community.
I guess i sort of understand that. But I think being angry, when there have been 3 useful upgrades in 3 months, is a little much.

I guess you are referring to my post about this. I am sorry if it sounded like I was angry about them publishing updates - quite the contrary! In fact, I am very happy that they are busy working on improving the device's functionality and ironing out the bugs in the firmware.
However, I was irritated by the fact that these newer firmware versions were only handed out to distributors (which in turn posted them on different forums) and not made available for download from their public web pages. What confused me was the attitude that these updates are "unofficial/unsupported", while they were in fact being installed and shipped on devices purchased through the respective distributors. I complained that distributors were considered more "important" than existing users.
I hope that clarifies my point.
