I have one doubt about this flasher. I want to flash the last sony firmware to get the battery fix, but I also want the clock (really neat). I know the flasher works with the last firmware, but, I don't know if the flasher acts as an incremental update on top of what it reads from the unit, or if the zip already contains the full image to be flashed (and thus will overwrite the last update until the flasher itself is updated).

Can someone clarify? Thanks...

BTW it would be great if the flasher incorporated the "left-history / right-turnpage" mod...

Thanks to everyone involved with these mods, in any case!
