Rob, I think Joanie's situation is also my situation. I too got the firmware update announcement and I did not sign up to be a beta tester either. I went ahead and got this update because from the reports I'm reading, the only thing wrong with this is the find text feature and I don't use that. So far it's been working great here. But I've no wish to be a beta tester and I won't get any more beta updates if I see them pop up in BP transfer. I hear something like version 2.00.00.01 or some such when I press a+c on the book port. Shannon
