ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a system and method for the efficient manufacture and update of electronic devices that is capable of pre-programming firmware/software into flash units (or other similar memory units) during their manufacturing so as to make the assembly line for the electronic devices more efficient and faster, and thus more productive. Various embodiments of the present invention may provide for an eventual update of the assembled electronic devices, after sales, employing embedded update agents in the electronic devices.
