Beth:
It sounds like you have all of the updates already. If you check for a =
firmware update and you are told you have the latest, then you are in good =
shape.
Note: if you heard the software mutter something about a firmware update =
when plugging in the Book Port, that was just the process of checking for =
the update beeing read by your screen reader. The latest firmware is =
1.1.1.

HI
I have a correction. BP does say I have a firmware update when I plug it =
in.
How do I get the update? Do I have to go to a link and download it? When I
say check for updates, I am told there are none.
Thanks/hugs,
Beth
