Kodak M381 Firmware Reload
My M381 is acting wierd; some navigation controls don't work, and then it starts cycling wildly through the menu options. It's not the battery, which I recharged. The mechanical controls appear to work, except the wide angle, and except when it starts cycling through menu options. I removed and reinstalled the battery, but that didn't do any good. Can I get the firmware for the M381, and instructions to reload it?
