your an angel catymag. got some kind of information on the link that you gave me. at least, there's a way and that there is a workaround somehow. post #10 is where the workaround is. indeed, it requires some dissecting to do on the unit but i guess it is doable. only downside is, i will have to loose the warranty if i open it up and modify it myself. i just need to read and re-read the post and keep in mind all the important things while i wait for my unit to come. some things i don't understand so well as the google translate is not that accurate at the german translation specially when copying the files on the partitioned sd card and turning the other one as primary so as to show the hidden files. that worries me much as things can go the wrong way. worth noting on the post that he used a Memory Card Extender Connector Linker he bought @ebay. that means he can always change the memory card or update it without opening the unit again the same way as he started. i think that is cool.
