All,
Check the link below for software and firmware updates.
If this is Greek (or Geek) to you, don’t make any changes!
What you have will work just fine and not be a disadvantage to your team.

You’ll find an update from the current software
(Version 2.0) to version 2.1 and a firmware upgrade to 1.31. The software
patch only works on version 2.0 so if you have older software don’t try
it – version 1.1 still works fine. Version 2 added data logging
capabilities which is great for use in schools but not required for FLL so there’s
no compelling reason to pay for the upgrade.
I have applied the software upgrade to Windows XP, VISTA and
Windows 7 machines as well as to Mac OSX Snow Leopard and they worked well on
all systems.
From my experience, version 1.31 provides a smaller firmware
overhead and more efficient memory management than previous versions and adds
some stability (brick locking) and data logging fixes. I upgraded
my bricks from version 1.26 with no problem though the firmware flashing does
seem to work better on the PC than the Mac.
