Overview

This page contains information on different firmware releases, betas etc.

The firmware numbers normally consist of 3 numbers - higher numbers mean newer firmware. Sometimes there are firmware revisions with 4 numbers, e.g. 1.00.04.9. These are BETA firmware revisions and they are older than the corresponding official release.

In other words: 1.00.04.9 < 1.00.04.10 < 1.00.04 < 1.00.05 (where '<' means 'older than')
