I don't know. I assume the version is what's marked on the chips, I 
know of know way to query the device for the version number.

Mark,

Assuming you grabbed this image from your own 5370B, could you let us 
know the serial number? The prefix would date it, and might provide 
some info. I did a quick compare, and it is different than the 5370A 
images which are posted elsewhere.

What's not known is if the early, "bad," 5370B firmware was just 
brought over from the 5370A, or whether there were 2 5370B versions in 
addition to the 5370A version.
