Tip regarding version numbering. The 2.01 (probably 2.0.1, but it doesn't matter) may have been triggered by a hardware change that requires a slight SW tweak. Or it could be a minor bux fix that was rolled into the factory, but not ready for the installed base just yet.

So, you may not see it as an update until more stuff is glommed together, or it is tested more thoroughly as as an update, in either case the version may well change yet again (2.1).

Generally when the 3rd digit changes it's not required for the installed base to upgrade. (and it might even be a bad idea, if the new SW required the new HW change, for example) Of course every situation is different, and Amazon isn't explaining what is going on behind the scenes.
