Especially if you keep in mind that the DW800Dual for instance doesn't really get updated anymore, already by now...
*JustwhatIthink*
I wasn't too happy about the 800 dual firmware support either. Especially after promising a 4x firmware when ppl paid $10 for the dual fw upgrade. B3D7 was only on their site for about 2 weeks then removed. We haven't seen anything since then.
