AXC-X10 Firmware Upgrade

I got my hands on an AXC-X10 card & dove into trying to add functionality to talk to my 52 Smarthome Switchlinc devices from my Netlinx system. I was soon able to get control of the devices working flawlessly, but could not get any on/off status or query responses from any of the switches. After much head-scratching, I figured out that the functionality was non-existant until firmware version 2.00 of the axcess card. Seeing I have version 1.10, and a few emails to tech support, I need a firmware update, which turns out to be a whole MC68HC705 processor with the code on it.
I was told I should order the following: FG747 firmware chips v2.00
I do not have a current relationship with a dealer, and need a source for this chip. Any dealers out there who could sell me this chip? Or, if someone has the microcode for version 2.00 & could email it, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'll be glad to order them for you. Any idea what they cost?

I believe I won the first one! I have been looking for one of these cards on Ebay (where I get almost all my AMX stuff) for well over a year now. When one popped up, I jumped at the chance! Of couse it came up soon after I finally got my own custom NL X-10 module working using an RS-232 smarthome powerlinc. I still like the "cleaner" solution of using the AXC-X10 though.
What is the availability/price of the firmware upgrade? Thanx.
