Hey Matthew,

Thanks for letting me know. I've just recently been itching to get my 
remote 25 working again and I've also been seriously considering moving 
my audio box from sarge to etch. So, your news is very welcome. I'm 
cc'ing the list in case anyway else might be interested.

My Remote 25 has been sitting here in front of me on my desk unused and 
collecting dust and cat hair for at least a year. If I remember 
correctly it still has the original 1.0 firmware version. Do you happen 
to know what version your's has? Do you or anyone else have anything to 
say about updating firmware on these devices?

Thanks again,
Eric Rz.
