Acording to support.toshiba.com they dont even acknowledge that that model is in their line-up even tho I was reading over the users manual looking for an alternate model number to type in. 

http://support.toshiba.com/support/modelHome?freeText=d-r550

I found no sevice bulletins, firmware upgrades, and only one un-replied to request for an update in the forums. I dont think there will be any firmware updates any time soon.
