Hi silv, you've mentioned a couple of times that it is an advantage that the firmware is opensource. I would totally agree with it, but only if the product is as popular as, say, Kindle. When the user-population is huge, the chance of someone developing a homebrew update is very high. Just take a look at Kindle section of this forum.

The original firmware for Story has gone opensource for many months and I haven't seen any community-built firmware!
