You probably have looked for the 1.8 firmware on Samsung's site.. It's not there.. The YP in YP-T9 comes from the T9's original designer, Yepp.. On yepp website in south korea, they offer the 1.8 firmware, just install it, and switch to the English language, so you can use the interface.. It comes with some flash games (you will not be able to figure out).. But an added feature is you can convert and install flash games that will work on the T9.. How you do it is you get a converter from the "anything but ipod" website:http://tinyurl.com/2xve6uIt's the converter that requires you to place a bunch of swf files in a directory and execute the program, it then creates a "Converted" directory in an adjacent folder with the converted SWF files, then you just move them to the T9, and try executing each in the T9 by using the file browser on the T9.. In this video I show you where the official games hang out, and it's possible that those standard games could be replaced with custom games so that you could reach them from the Games menu.. I tried a few flash games on the T9 but only one had a view big enough to recognize and that was Tic-Tac-Toe.. But it proved to me that it can be done, it's just a matter of someone doing it now.. Some games worked in horizontal mode using the wider side of the T9, so I believe someone in the T9 group will find some good games to put on the T9.. The biggest feature of the T9 with the Firmware 1.8 is you can connect your T9 to a non-windows Operating System.. In my case, I was able to connect it to Ubuntu.. And furthermore Ubuntu was smart enough to identify the video format of the files in the T9's movie area and even play the videos directly from the T9 without transfer.. The T9 uses open source codecs, mainly XVID which is the open source fork of DIVX (XVID is DIVX backwards).. I think part of the reason why the T9 uses open source codecs is that it is based on vxWorks.. The T9's operating system is vxWorks, an embedded version of Linux!! Aslo supposedly the same OS that the mars lander uses.. The 1.8 Firmware also, supposedly, support Ogg audio format.. I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard from some that it is not that good.. Oh well.. In Ubuntu with all the media extensions enabled, all videos and audio files look the same.. I've found few cases where I was not able to watch video.. I don't listen to enough mp3 files to determine how well it fairs there, but media formats are not an issue at all in Ubuntu.I
