Due to the fault of our R4 team,except R4(I) SDHC V2.0，all the kernels can not work normally base on the date after 14th, April, 2010. The issues are the system date error and when you booting up the consoles, you couldn't enter into the main manu. We are awfully sorry for this. The temporary solution is to adjust your system date before 14th, April, 2010. R4 team will remedy this bug with the latest kernel and do the activity to reward the consumers! The latest information for this activity will be released at www.r4isdhc.com and www.nds9.com. Please pay more attention to this!

Hi. I am not sure what you mean by updates. Do you mean are there any newer models of remote that can replace your Harmony 659?

If that is your question, then yes there is! Logitech has just annouced two brand new models of Harmony remote. The Harmony 600 and Harmony 650, which are available in North America on April 1st 2010.

Hope that answers your question!
