I could be wrong, but I believe the reason for this, is because as your updating the firmware, you will need to view a display of the progress/results, etc...I don't think you'll see anything via the DVI connection. Isn't there a way you can just hook up a smaller tv that you may own and place it nearby the player, just to update the firmware. Again, I could be way off base, and someone else may step in here and say...Sirquack...NOT
Anyway, I'm thinking about also getting the 2910 for my Sanyo Z2 projector....good luck
