Free region

Hello Andrew,
                    Have you updated the firmware? if yes did you do it over the net or with a disc? I have the U.S version A1 and don't seem able to get a link over the net (might be due to pccw they suck nuts!!).

Actully i just burnt the 1.4 firmware file to CD-R and upgraded that way.
