Both the Press Office talking to The Register and Mark Wilkin have said the same thing that Virgin will continue to work to bring new features to the SuperHub where possible.

Any future updates to the Netgear SuperHub will be written by Netgear, as it's their hardware
what about the other contractors, will they have their own firmware? again apologies for my lack of knowledge.

VM have a bloody nose over the SH. They don't really have the grace to fully admit it, IMO - but they've brought in a second supplier and stats will show whether or not there's an improvement, both with the 485 and the 480.

I think focus might now shift from what a normal Netgear router (or the CG3100D) would offer and what's been removed as a result of VM's firmware specification. In other words, why has VM specified a firmware (slugging some features) and then put up a thread in the VM forum asking punters what features they's like to see? Seems somewhat amateur to me.
ok yeah I went overboard with the taking a break comment, it just annoyed me to say the least. common sense is enough to realize to recoupe rep, somewhat level things out an additional firmware will be needed and should be happening as we speak. the stabilizer, R30 is foundation which should of been there from the start as we know. to be contempt with it thinking everythings ok now we don't need to pull out any stops is disgraceful if anything. i say all this getting the vibe vm don't really care which goes against their own benefit.
