You know what is the problem.. that each day that passes by people find out about this bug, that actually is nothing too serious.. but the problem is that it takes away a little of confidence in the company in a time when it is growing with great products, they cant forget about this part and focus only in development of new the new products cuz people talk.. and what they say?? that the latest firmware have a bug ( silly bug.. but a bug ), so people start downgrading the firmware.. and that is happening and is a fact... I do write software and do know that with some will it can be fix shortly.. maybe faster than many think...
Fixing this little bug will send a message straight to the costumers saying "we know the problem.. and we fixed it fast.." THAT helps the company, and that helps to grow confidence among the costumers.
In my case the bug doesnt affect me that much.. so i can live with it until the next firmware.. but looks like for some people that is not the case.
