I purchased this TV a little over a month ago and the firmware update was available when I purchased it. After about a week, the TV started to do the 'phantom reset'... I downloaded the firmware, followed the instructions, and within two to three minutes, my TV was patched.
I haven't had the issue (knock on wood) since. Seems like everything is working as it should.
For those without a jumpdrive, you can contact Samsung and they will send you out a drive with the firmware preloaded.
This set is phenomenal and definitely worth the money.
Yeah, the samsung rep brought the firmware update to my retailer weeks ago on cute little samsung branded thumb drives and left me a pile to hand out to customers.
