the only cheap ways you can upgrade the firmware yourself:
1. a serial service cable (usually labelled as T28 cable), then buy a logon ID (USD$10) and remotely hook up to a server and upgrade. It's pay per use, good only for 1 upgrade. This is also extremely unreliable as connection can stop anytime and you may end up with a dead phone
2. a terminator dongle ($35) which allows you to upgrade different SE phones without additional purchases.

i guess the serial service cable is not the data cable. i also have a cable labeled T39 which doesn't work at all but sometimes, when connected to the PC with this cable, the phone flashes as if it's being charged. could this be a service cable or just a bad data cable and is it possibe to update the phone with some software (not online) with a serial service cable. i know Siemens phones can be updated via COM data cable. why do SE phones need such complications?
