Today, I found the Wii's disc tray emitting blue light again. Nintendo has released yet another firmware update for the Wii, but it is mainly bug fixes. From the Wii message sent out:
"A new update for your Wii console is available!

This update will prevent your Wii console from locking up, which can occur when using the Internet Channel if you press RESET on either your Wii console or within the HOME Menu. This update also corrects some Internet connection stabability issues when using the Wii LAN Adapter from Nintendo."

I checked, and no extra keyboard support has been added. Also, the FLV video found here (http://www.youtube.com/v/ULzxwmV5QgI) does not crash the Wii anymore. Another potential homebrew exploit gone. And as a side note, the Wii's still at 3.0x.

Well I don't know if it's just my bad luck - but after this update, my Wiikey boot disc doesn't work anymore. It recognizes it as a Gamecube disc but then it doesn't start and asks to refer to Wii Instruction book :(

Can anyone confirm having the same problem as I have?

I also got this update after previous 3.0E. The version is still showing 3.0E after the update was done (should we call it 3.0Eb).
What I discovered is that the blue light stays off in standby mode after this "b" update. After the previous 3.0E update it started to blink in standby mode (non-stop blinking).
Did anyone else had similar behaviors?
