EDIT: Just got off of the phone with Justin at Sound Devices. Yes, you can update the firmware without the hardware upgrade.

Haven't seen this discussed anywhere...

Can I update my SD 744t firmware version from 1.74 to 2.03 without the new hardware upgrade?

I'm assuming yes. I just wanted to be sure before I do the deed. Gonna tape the Karl Denson Trio tonight.
