I don’t think anyone here is being unappreciative, but with that being said, I also don’t think we are being unreasonable asking for more regular updates considering the circumstances of over a 3 month beta. The other devices have received several updates during this period and it’s perplexing, if not concerning, that this unit is suffering such a long delay in its update. For those of us that decided to test the beta, I don’t think anyone could have assumed that we would still be in a beta stage 3 months later. Typically these betas may last a week or two before the final firmware is released. The last update I saw was maybe a couple weeks ago stating that a new round of private beta testing was occurring, but not a peep since then. No one is grabbing pitchforks here, but I think an update with a potential timeframe (other than “soon”, or “whenever it’s ready”) would be encouraging and not unreasonable.
That is where I'm coming from; that the FM9 has been in a beta stage for three months is very unusual for FAS devices, as well as that I've never had a beta firmware have so many issues that affect the operability instantly right out of the gate before. I love the FM9, but I'm a bit concerned as well that there is something really amiss going on here....
