Ok, so I got the "Port Open Failed' type message. It said to reset the device and relaunch the updater.

So I did that, when I did a soft reset it did boot up and say WM 6.1, but I still launched the updater and now it is still flashing, so it's possible it was actually updated before that error, but I'm letting it go through again incase it hasn't got to the radio update yet.

2nd try, get Transffering Failed!!

Any ideas? Doing this on my vista 32 laptop.
