Sony XG80 firmware upgrade?

[Kirkedal]

Hi all.

I have heard that an upgrade to the Sony PCS-XG80 is out - ver. 2.0?.
Have any of you tested it and are you able to tell a difference or any changes?

Best regards

Has all the right improvements. A "must do" upgrade. Resolves the HDMI switching black out.
