Hi Tim!
I don't think I can help here, but what I can say is, that I have
updated to 1.04 and have had no problems. The only difference I see is
the card; mine is an 8GB Patriot SDHC. I have in the past been extremely
impressed with Patriot cards which I've used in cameras, hence my
purchase of this one. I am not sufficiently knowledgeable to be able to
say if the card could be the problem, but I'm sure others on the group are.
Just one question out of curiosity; is the start-up time with card
inserted, many seconds longer than without?
Regards
Max
