Should I upgrade to firmware 1.20?

[twist]

Hi

Just got the ifp-790 today. Now testing out and have a few questions.
When turn-on, the screen display "ver. 1.15". Does this mean i should upgrade to ver 1.20 released recently on iriver website?
What are the improvements there?

btw, what does it mean by "factory firmware"? I thought it means "the original firmware that come with the player".... but seems like it's not.

I've got an ifp-795, it came with firmware 1.14. I've yet to find out what improvements, if any, IRiver packed into 1.20. If it's something of no use to me, such as something to speed up speech, I won't bother because I've got the player set up just the way I like it. New firmware means plowing everything on the player (files, settings, radio station presets) and unless the new firmware comes with something useful I ain't gonna bother.
