update: A friend called me last night to let me know his Autonomic MMS-5A updated to the newest firmware. For those just checking in, the MMS-5A is the core of the MB100. So, maybe there's some hope there for us MB100 owners. Sure enough, on Autonomic's blog, they have a post about the older MMS-5A devices finally getting updated to remove Flash. So, now we know at least it's possible to bring the MB100s current.
Also, for what it's worth, I cancelled my order of 2 MS500s based on an email from McIntosh support a few months ago, letting me know that there wasn't going to be a firmware update for the MS500. Now that the MS500 was updated with new firmware, I haven't heard back from McIntosh. I know things are tough with covid in general, etc, but I find it odd that no one's reaching out to let me know that I should proceed with the purchase, since a lack of support was the sticking point for me.
