I can't imagine that offer will stop any of the Firmware DIY crowd...

What if you purchased an EX1 that already shipped with the latest firmware?

ok the firmware is $108.00.. postage and insurance $100.00 so your getting $100.00 off the 32GB card. No thanks Sony. I will wait for the ScanDisc 32GB SDHC cards to be released $149.00

Got that a few days ago. Already have 4 SxS cards (2 x 8gb and 2 x 16gb). Don't feel the need for more. Not sure if Sony has read the writing on the wall with respect to SDHC cards or CF cards with HD/SDI digital recorders. Nothing new there then.
Rather more interested in big capacity CF/UDMA cards for my Flash XDR.
