Hi,
got the same ROM version with mine as i described in that =
message:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=3Dnewtontalk&m=3D104901558030822&w=3D2lk>
Then i found the newer (and last) OS version, put it on my MP130
and the upgrade went fine. So upgrading should be not the problem,
if that was one of your questions...
To the other questions:
Don=B4t know, typo or an undocumented inbetween-release?
Don=B4t care much, the important thing to me was:
Can i upgrade to D-536205? That was, as i stated, no problem.
Ciao,
Martin
