So is this the Karl Urban speach pack or is this a little update to hold us over till then.

The speaker lights are only flashers which dont do much when you flash them in flash test. I am working on a mod to fix that problem by putting some spacers under the speakers and adding blue LED strips on 3 sides leaving the top open for the flasher.

Is it possable to backup the 1.3 onto a thumb drive before you update to the new 1.4?
It's my first Stern Sam game, use to burning ROM's old school but this looks easy enough. I watched the Stern video.
I think I'll wait a wile and see if it's worth updateing first.

Thanks, do you know if you can save it on the same thumb drive that already has the new code on it

I used a ScanDisk Cruzer Edge 8GB I got at Sam's Club. It came formatted FAT 32 and I just deleted the files it came with and unzipped the file directly to the thumb drive and I also saved the original 1.3 before I updated to 1.4 and it worked great first time.
