You can download the firmware as disk image files from Toshiba's Canadian website, and the CDs you burn from them ought to be as safe as the ones Toshiba is mailing you.

The other reason I mostly leave my player disconnected from the internet is because the potential is there to use it to track my viewing habits, and far too many parties (like all AACS consortium member companies) might have access to it.

Its not practical for my A1 to hooked to the internet - Jack G 06:45:17 05/28/07 (0)
Yea, I could download the .ISO image, but I'm not that motivated. I did that a year ago with 1.2, and dispite it checking out OK, when I upgraded my machine, both the picture and the sound were messed up. I ended up returning it for another player. They *will* send me a CD-they always do. I may or may not use it.
Regardless, my player plays everything quite well with 2.0, and I know 2.2 just enables, the internet features and fixes the HDMI-> DVI problem. Neither one is an issue for me.
