So I've had a jetbook for a while, right around the time they did the first 169 newegg deal.

It's been.. Okay. When I can get it to open a file it's pretty good, but most file formats just don't work. Hourglass of death basically. I was hoping the new firmware would fix this.

But I can't upgrade the firmware. I'm running .33g. I'm trying to flash to the newest (.34c) I think. Anytime I try to flash it I get the "failed to update" screen.

I tried on internal memory, on sd card, formatted both to FAT, reset to factory defaults, reflash_nor (I think i did this right).

Nothing works. It refuses to flash.

Any ideas?
