I don't know as I'm at work at the moment without my jetBook Color, but if they don't mention it then I doubt it's there.

Just a caution, it seems that the file that the link is pointing to has changed in the past couple of hours e.g., originally DL the link was:
http://images.jetbook.net/upgrade/jb.../jbcupdate.bin

currently it is:
http://images.jetbook.net/upgrade/jb.../jbcupdate.bin

The file size has also changed accordingly....

I think it's wise to take newer files.... or not?

You see, if we'd waited for our official summons we wouldn't have this problem.

Andrew,
have you received the Ectaco's mail? I have no notification yet.

No I haven't, hence my comment above about waiting.

Just downloaded the v1115 update from jetboot.net/update, but when I follow the instructions for step 1 #5. press reset button and hold for 2-3 seconds, it does NOT update. It only reboots my JC. I do not see an "Updating..." message nor a progress bar. I also tried holding the power botton and pressing the right arrow button simultaneously to no avail. Please help.

In the istruction is not clear (for me) if you must press RESET button when the device is on or whet it is off.

Adrew: thank you, I didn't notice the post before. The particular of rename filename is not obvious. Ectaco should fix the update's istructions on jetbook.net soon to avoid a long list of calls

I think the wifi update will be included in the April update.
Seeing they barely made their deadline, it will most likely be rather April 30 than April 1, but I'm expecting the wifi fix (together with opera browser) to be active on the next fix!
