APRIL FOOLS: E-TEN Pulls Firmware Update Due to Ghosts in Camera Application
"E-TEN urges all M600 owners who recently downloaded ROM update 0214 to not install it on their devices, as a bug in the Camera application does not filter out images of the deceased. Because the integrated CMOS camera sensor in the M600 is much stronger than its predecessor, it was initially discovered that it captures more than the standard spectrum of light, including ectoplasmic energy and other paranormal activity."
This candid snapshot of the M600 with the ROM update and its Camera application open was handed to the local police after the undergraduate student in the photo was reported missing in Guiyang Forest Park, China. Organizations such as the International Ghost Hunters Society have been providing mirror download links of the ROM update and even purchased a mass quantity of M600's from online retailers around the world, while E-TEN cautions the weak of heart and those easily spooked to not use the Camera feature until ROM update 0215 is released.
