wow, i guess i was luckey, i bought mine from a friend and he had only upgraded to 2.0, and in the first 1.5 hr's of haveing it, i had a 1.5

and as for the 2.5. if homebrew and such isnt such a big thing for you, keep it and just wait. but if the reason you bought it is for homebrew and loaders, try and take it back and get a 1.5 from the store.
