Spent my money on HT and not a new computer.

Sitting in front of a PC all day at work makes me turned off to have one at home.

Good information, considering there is no such thing as a CD+R.

I am also baffled by the tech-noknowhow with this issue. This is not copyrighted or otherwise intellectually protected thing. It is a firmware update. It is by it's very intent, to be used and distributed. It isn't sold. Why can't, at the least, some of the people who have it make a direct copy for others to use rather than sending discs all over the place. The cost of burning a disc is far less than postage.

I can verify that the firmware update(s) linked in this thread work fine. The file size of the ISO should be 58,420kb. Make sure you burn in Disc-at-Once mode and not Track-at-Once, or the player will get to about the 50% point and spit the disc out and tell you to try downloading the update later.

I should be receiving my HD-A1 tomorrow, and I was wondering if there's any chance it will be running Version 2.0. Or are no units shipping with that version? Also, what is the process for getting the update from Toshiba, if they're not still backordered - register the unit then call and request, then wait?

BTW, my apartment has wireless internet throughout (not my own connection), so I can't update over the web.

you will be able to tell if it has update 2.0 by trying to select the Dolby True HD track on one of your movies. If it tells you that its not available then you do not have 2.0 installed.
