Update or not to update?

**Wompa** · 02-07-2008, 09:55 PM

Hi.

I got my Zune today and found out that it runs the v1.3 Firmware. Im thinking about updateing it but, as you do so you will lose some of the benefits.
Should I update it?
The v2.3 has WiFi Sync and what else? Im not sure about the benefits of updateing but is it anything else that is important and very good to have? Any new files that the Zune can handle?

The 1.3 has the benefit of all the hacks. But then I miss out on some of the newer fixes and stuff on the v2.3 Firmware?

What should I do?
Shall I update and what do I miss out on?

Well i guess that's up to you, but what i would say is that a lot of people have had problems with wireless syncing so unless you're sure that it will work then you might not want to update since there is not to many more benefits.
But i would also say that PityOnU/WhiteRabbit is working on zSuite 2.0 so what you could do is keep v1.3 for the moment and then update when zSuite 2.0 is brought out.

well if your really into podcasts and having it neatly organised, then i say go for the new firmwhere update. if you like the new music rating system and the new UI then go for the new firmware.

However, you do end up deciding against going with the new firmware, then good luck trying to not let the software/firmware automatically update itself...
