There is going to be a cable available from authorized dealers that will connect to the data port in the 350QX and to your computer via USB, cable will cost $15 as per Blades info from their Facebook account not to mention the phone conversation i had with them. The upgrades will be free of charge, but getting your hands on this cable when it comes out is going to be crazy. Think of the thousands that are going to need one. lol. Plus this cable will be used for future upgrades as well. Also there will be a computer GUI for the update. Hope this helps, wish they had these on preorder so i could get one so i don't have to worry about limited stock and so on.
