   Wait a minute - I'll check. Bought it used on eBay - marvelous place.   
   But I don't think they said its age. If they did, I forgot.   
      
   Gotta get a flashlight, it's dark in that corner. Dang it, cat! If you   
   weren't underfoot your tail wouldn't get stepped on! Ah, there's one.   
   And it has batteries, too! I'm on a roll.   
      
   Now let me look - it's probably on the bottom. Hmmm. Tiny letters. Where   
   are my reading glasses? Ah. Try again. Model... Serial... MAC address...   
   Not on that sticker. There's another, with even *smaller* print.   
      
   Ah, there it is: 11/2007. And I remember updating to the latest firmware   
   last winter, but I don't remember the date of it... Sigh. Need my   
   browser, and just another sec... There. Firmware version 8.00.8, dated   
   Oct 5, 2009.   
      
   Does that help?
