Great example of the turn around time and support a company can do when THEY control the development of their hardware AND software. Lesson learned I think.

 

How long did it take for the first firmware update to come on the very f'd 1.0 f series, 4 months?

 

All I can say is good for them, im excited to see this, and I hope it continues with the f series and its not only going to be for the x.

 

Granted it does make you wonder why this wasn't put out with the initial firmware. More of the same? Double edge sword I guess.

I dont really understand how it needs an update already when it has not even been on the market for a month yet. You think they would have this down that they should have done extensive testing before releasing the x series.

and enhanced reliability during firmware update process

 

New lockout for testmode?

So, as the F series hardware is the same as the X series, would this firmware update work on the X series models?

I would think they would tend to rush to market regardless of low quality. Not surprised at all, considering the F series.

 

I think they have completely forgone testing.
