Just saw this over at AVS.

So Friday and Monday there will be a update.

The BD player's latest firmware versions will be released with the
following schedule.
- Nov. 16 : BDP-95FD Version 3.15
- Nov. 19 : BDP-94HD Version 2.36, BDP-HD1 Version 3.65

The latest firmware versions include the following fixes.
- Enhances BD-Java behavior of certain BD titles "The Die Hard Series" to
be released on Nov 20.
- Enhances BD-Java behavior of certain BD title "Pirates of the Caribbean
At World's End" to be released on Dec 04.
- Enhances BD-Java behavior of certain BD title "Big Fish".
- Fixed the following issue.
1) rarely won't play a certain BD title "Robocop".

Also remember that the BDP-95FD firmware can be downloaded directly to the
player using the network upgrade feature. Otherwise, you can download the
firmware from pioneerelectronics.com website, burn it to a DVD, and load it directly. (Step by
step instructions on how to do so are listed on the site as well.)

Nice to see at least one company is being pro-active on the updates

I guess that means there's going to be a round for Panasonic, Sony and a bunch of others right quick as well

Could not agree more. Wish we could get all CEs on this track. But if the updates do not come quick it will look bad for them. Since at least one CE got it out the others cannot say they did not know or have enough time.
