I'm not good when it comes to regularly upgrading software for my handheld. Often 2-3 months behind, I find the process of upgrading annoying and often not without difficulties. I guess I live by the old saying "Never change a running system" (or, in other words, "Move your butt as little as possible"). Well, after having experienced two nasty crashes in iSilo this week, I decided that today would be the perfect day for bringing my handheld up-to-date:

iSilo V4.25 -> V4.28
Resco Explorer 2003 V5.10 -> 2005 V5.21
Softick CardExport II V2.02 -> V2.04
TVGuide V0.6.0.127 -> V0.6.2.142
NewsBreak V1.0 -> V1.1
GSPlayer V2.15 -> V2.22
TCPMP V0.65y -> V0.66e

So far everything works fine and I don't regret any of these updates. But I'm curious: How regularly do you update software for your handheld?
