Hi, Updating is extremely easy. Connect to the Internet with your unit. Once connected, go to the applications menu and press 66. The software will go out and check for updates. Press select on the available update to download and press okay. The software will download automatically, and, when completed, will ask you if you want to update the software. Press okay to continue, and the update will be downloaded automatically. Be sure to close all other applications prior to downloading, and, if you have important data on your unit, perform a back-up first.
