Sun T5220 Firmware question

Hello all,

I've been researching this to no avail, I have a T5220 running firmware 7.2.2.e (139442-06)

However, the issue I have is that I want to update the firmware yet Oracle maintains 3 different sets of firmware for the T5220:

7.2.x = (139442-14) Being the latest at 7.2.11.a; Released 12/13/2011
7.3.x = (145675-06) Being the latest at 7.3.3; Released 11/17/2011
7.4.x = (147309-04) Being the latest at 7.4.2.a; Released 12/13/2011

Why would Oracle maintain 3 sets, and if anyone knows why I should or should not update to the 7.4.x line when I'm presently running a 7.2.x

If anyone knows anything more about this than I do, I would appreciate any insight.

bt3c

BT3C(4) 						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						   BT3C(4)

NAME

     bt3c -- 3Com Bluetooth PC Card driver

SYNOPSIS

     bt3c* at pcmcia? function ?

DESCRIPTION

     The bt3c driver provides support for the 3Com Bluetooth PC Card, model 3CRWB6096, to the Bluetooth protocol stack.

FIRMWARE

     This card needs firmware loaded before it will work. Due to copyright restrictions we cannot distribute the firmware with NetBSD, but if you
     have the card then you should have received a CD with the drivers on, or you may download the latest version from the 3Com website. Create a
     directory named bt3c in the search path of the firmload(9) kernel subsystem. Now, extract the driver archive and find the firmware file
     called BT3CPCC.bin, and place this file in the newly created directory. The firmware will be loaded automatically as needed.

DIAGNOSTICS

     bt3c%d: Cannot open firmware
	  This will be printed to the console if the device cannot open the firmware file as described above.

     bt3c%d: Antenna In
     bt3c%d: Antenna Out
	  If the kernel is compiled with the DIAGNOSTIC option, these messages will be produced on the console when the card antenna position is
	  changed.

     bt3c%d: sleeping
     bt3c%d: waking up
	  These messages will be produced when the card is enabled or disabled due to power change events.

HISTORY

     This bt3c device driver was written by Iain Hibbert using FreeBSD and BlueZ drivers as a reference.  It first appeared in NetBSD 4.0.
