I'm a little bit unpleasured of the way that the developpers from neuro act!! One other firmware version is out!!! WOuaaaaw it's beautiful, but what brings it from new??? nothing !! Sure only things are fixed but not those that should be fixed! The 442 still don't play .mov format an the platform isn't very attractive! Why is neuros only caring about the new version of the 442! I think you could do i little bit more!! thankz

I think the bottom line is the current 442 hardware just does not have the power needed to handle all the additional tasks and capabilities that are being planned.
The New hardware platform is needed befor this open source project can go forward.
Its expected most owners will trade-in the current model for the upgrade so why waste resources attempting to make the current version do something the hardware can't really support.

That sounds a little different than the marketing hype of last fall. I don't think I would have bought a Neuros 442 if I knew it would never live up to it's promises and I would be forced to trade it in to get a useful device.

You don't understand ... i don't expect from neuro developpers to put the 442 v2 "abilities" on the 442 v1! The 442 has enough power to provider better things ... From my side i would only expect one thing ... a better platform and library shuffle because everyone have seen that there are some little problems ... ok you aren't forced to do that because i obviously already bought the 442 but it would e very nice and friendly if you could discuss and find a good solution for these problems! Just make us love our 442 more than we already do! ;-)

I agree but then thats the nature of marketing hype in general.
Even last fall thoes that read the boards and Wiki would have known only limited firmware updates were planned for the current version and 442V2 was the future open source model.
I actually find the The current device useful and a handy device to own and really looking forward to the New 442V2.
Personally I think Neuros has been more than fair with the options and upgrades they plan to offer owners of the 442.
I suspect no matter what they do they wouldn't please everyone.
