 As Mark describes:

 07:59 < MarkF> As a result of the strong request of the software team for
 more time, we're doing everything we can to provide more time.  The  first
 deliverable will be a BIOS + wireless updater, due here on November 9th.
 This MUST be a bootable USB key.  It does NOT need to update the NAND
 Flash, since Quanta will blow away the NAND Flash image during system
 assembly.

 Should be easy enough to do with the image utils we have today, assuming
 we have tools that can update them.  Blizzard will work on this today.
