Ricoh GRDII Firmware 2.0 issue

Last week Ricoh released the first function-enhancing firmware update for the GRDII (v2.0). But, according to Ricoh, there is an issue with the recommended external flash by Sigma. They have temporarily suspended the download of the new firmware update.

"Due to unforeseen problems with the first function enhancing firmware for use in the GR DIGITAL II (v2.00) we he have suspended with immediate effect any further downloads. The problem occurred when using the recommended external flash (made by Sigma) in the continuous shooting mode.
For those users who would like to switch their firmware back from V2.00 to V1.12, please download V1.12 again from the download page on our site. We apologize for the inconvenience."

Update! April 8, 2008
Ricoh released a new version of the GRDII firmware. You can find the V2.01 firmware here.
