Certainly there won't be any firmware updates, but they are still "repairing" them. If you send one in for repair, they replace it with a refurbished unit with new battery and case for $110. I plan on doing that myself when the battery or buttons start on mine showing signs of crapping out. I'd much rather do that then get a 800 or 810. Aftermarket replacement batteries are available and easy enough to install, but once the rubber buttons start to go, you're SOL.
