I found it a little odd that nobody there seemed to know about the 'A' upgrade?

Mike seems to be the most knowledgeable one there, so I'd try to speak to him again.

As far as I know, the whole "A" upgrade thing was the "U" models not the "E" models? (I may be wrong). I haven't had to send my cam in for any fixes, but then again I've never had many problems, I just wanted the firmware update to minimise the final cut problems, and so far I haven't had a chance to try it out.

The only thing thats noticeably different so far since the update is a couple of extra menu items, which I think are connected to firestore hard drive use.

^^ Cheers Paul.
I phoned again on Friday and they asked if I wished to send the camera in for the upgrade - I told them I'd give it a go myself (making sure the tape is out the cam!). However, for the HD100 fix on the website you have to fill out a form for them to then contact you again...so I'm still waiting.
Didn't realise the 'A' upgrade relates to the U models though.

Thanks.
