Rick: In order to have that version of the firmware (since it is still Beta), you must first download the Beta software. You can get that at: www.aph.org/beta Once you've installed the Beta software, then when you plug in your Book Port, you will be able to have that particular update.

So what need I do to get the version 2.1.0.25 in my system?
