Why update the firmware? On US Mio c520's there was never a firmware update offered. If your device starts up without any problems then firmware is not an issue. Instead of worrying about that, maybe just run an unlock on it and add some other navigation programs.... like igo8, Primo, GarminXT, and TomTom. No need to do anything to the firmware to run those programs.

FWIW, it's not a good idea to mess with the firmware. One small hiccup and you'll brick your device.
If it ain't broke don't fix it!
ALWAYS BACK-UP YOUR FILES/FOLDERS BEFORE MAKING EDITING CHANGES!

I think that you're 100% correct. What pleasure could they get from that?
