You asked for it:
You're wrong. 
There's a persistent belief by some people that there was a competition-specific version of the firmware. I think that's based on a misunderstanding of just what it means for the OM5P's power light to be on and steady. When powering it up, the power light comes on and stays on just long enough to trick people into thinking it's ready to be reconfigured at the kiosk, but then it goes off again as the boot process continues. If you click the button on the kiosk too soon, the program fails to find the radio and suggests reloading the firmware.
