I am wondering if anyone has heard FiiO's plan on supporting the X3 into the future. Before the 2.1 firmware release, we were seeing consistent firmware upgrades making the device better and better. These were happening very quickly, often only a couple weeks between revisions. Now we're nearing March, and we haven't seen an update since November. Does FiiO plan on supporting the X3 hardware with firmware updates into the future?

I must say that I have to agree with this gentleman here. One of the key reasons why I bought the X3 was because of the awesome support I've seen in the head-fi.org forums, as well as the continuous engagement with the users. Will FiiO still continually support and upgrade the X3? I really feel there is a lot of potential, just left untapped.

It might seem worrying that you guys don't see a lot of firmware action here at HF from FiiO for the past few months, But they have already mentioned some UI update (as well as whatever bugfixes of course) over at their own (Chinese) forum, so no worry, a they will keep X3 updated. Don't forget there is also plan to migrate the upcoming X5 firmware over to X3 as well, once it gets stable enough. The two share the same basic hardware platform, so bugfixes and upgrade will get easier in the future.

Thanks for this information. I was not aware of future merging of the X5 and X3 firmware. Good to know we're not being left out to dry!
