M8 firmware upgrades

[OurManInTangier]

Hi.

My M8 has the 2.004 firmware upgrade and I simply wondered if anyone has a more recent upgrade and if so, what any benefits or pitfalls are. Essentially I'm very happy with my current set-up but would obviously like to have the benefit of any upgraded firmware so long as there are no little known horror stories.

I'm sorry, I know I'm being lazy I have had a quick search but couldn't find anything and now work calls but hopefully someone may have an answer by the time I'm back at home

Ditto. Good update.

Updating was easy and painless.

Yup, my update went well too. With the previous version, I had been getting "Card locked" errors with one of my SD cards. Could be coincidental but the update seems to have solved the issue...

I updated to v. 2.005 yesterday.

Thankfully I've never had a single issue with my M8, so hopefully between that fact and the various upgrades I'll have a good few years of continual use from my M8... unless an M9 should appear

Haha. If an M9 should magically appear on my doorstep, I will use it Otherwise, my M8 will more than suffice ...
