Manually Update Firmware
To manually update to the latest firmware version, you will need an SD card, computer, and access to internet. This step may need to be completed during setup if you do not have an HDMI cable or TV/Monitor to connect to.
Note: If you have Settings > Auto-Update Firmware turned on,
then Monument will automatically update.

will existing photos still be available?
@Ge Lee
Existing photos will be still available after updating firmware. It is just like updating firmware OTA but you did it manually.
@Hunter: Awesome, thanks for the quick reply. I am seriously loving my Monument, and being along for the development ride is pretty neat also - if you need beta testers with pretty large photo collections, I'd be more than happy to let you guys get all the diagnostics and logs you need.
Cheers
