How does this TV get firmware updates? How do I tell what version it is at?

Although I can not answer your questions, I can tell you that I would not buy another Vizio. The one I purchased a few months ago stopped working after three weeks. Televisions last decades not a few weeks. I would buy a Samsung, a Panasonic or an LG instead. I now have a Samsung and am very happy with it.

Sorry I took so long. The firmware number on my unit is FBF293, and I don't know if it is the latest version.

So far I've had no trouble and bought it after the firmware was to have been installed. I'm not familiar what the firmware improved but it works fine.

Yes, it's all over the net. Do a Google search on "Panasonic firmware 1.43" -- AVS has pages on it. In summary: firmware defect, they are "working on it" (have been for a couple days), no immediate way to get back to previous version. All we can do is wait (or return units, if that's still an option)

Mine was a reboxed new unit, firmware was 251. Its alittle older, but does what I wanted. Other stock may have different firmware

I bought mine only 2 weeks ago and the firmware I have now is dated 8/24/07 and xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-1036. I have not tweaked my settings yet. The defaults are looking very good with free over the air HD channels. Put in HD channels or blueray player or Hd-dvd player, if all look good then just be happy with it.I can't say for sure about the refurbished unit.

Use a flash drive, download the firmware update for your model. Insert the down loaded into the usb port on tv. Done.

I have two of these and I don't find a hardware revision ID anywhere visible on the device front or back. But I have updated firmware many times with no issues. It's safe to assume that Amazon is selling the latest revision from their store.

Hmm... not a clue about firmware version. I actually returned the product because it did not solve the problem I was facing (HUGE lag on my PS2 Playstation when connected to new 52" AQUOS Sharp LCD Hi-Def TV). No solution found yet!

Jose,If you have the unit connected to the internet you should be able to go into the on-screen menu and have it search for a firmware update.Eric C

According to Sony - this model can have it's firmware updated. HDMI 2.0 will probably be in the updates as it becomes more widespread.
