You are correct about the firmware, but I would
try to find a unit that has been factory updated
within the past year or so. I sent my unit in under
warranty in June 2005 and there were a number ofhardware updates done
in addition to the specific
problem I had. If you search the archives, I believe
someone posted a list of some of them.
I would also ask the owner to verify that
the display is not going dark in some areas.
That was the problem in my unit which caused me
to send it in under warranty.
