Default New Eurovox firmware or BS from dealer?

I have recently purchased a Eurovox Max from a dealer on eBay, today I received an email saying delivery will be delayed a couple of days as new firmware is due to be released on the 6th of June.

They say they want to update all their boxes before shipping, is this true or a delaying tactic, they originally promised next day delivery.

This is the email, less the identifying info.

I like the "extra widescreen formats" bit. Could this finally mean it will support proper 16:9?
Wonder if this f/w could be used for the Blue box version too.

I'm expecting delivery of my box in the morning, part of the deal is that I get access to all the latest software via some website or by email, if I can get my hands on the file I will post a link.

Unless of course the whole story was a smoke screen to delay orders due to a lack of stock, in which case I won't be very happy and will leave neg feedback for this trader.
