Here's a question posted in the comment section over on my blog. I thought I'd copy it over here to see what you all think. I hope someone can help them out!
Well I have the pleasure of helping my Grandson install his Funkeys. I was wondering if there is anywhere to get updates for the original disk. We just bought this yesterday and apparently there is a 3.0 and the disk is 1.0. Not a whole lot of information around to find out anything about these Funkeys without an extensive search. I have tried several times to get update for one of the Funkeys and get "We are sorry but our Funkey engineers cannot find the new update on our server along with a phone number to call which I can not talk to anyone until Monday. I have downloaded the HUB patch, deleted the update folder and all that was suggested on the website. Any ideas on how to get the upgrade and to get this little fella going?

This is the answer that I posted on my blog, but I do need other comments to add to this. Thanks!
I'm curious, can you log into the game other than not having the 3.0 update? Because the update doesn't give you access to anything new at this point since the newest Funkeys aren't out yet. So as long as you have access to the games for the Funkeys you have, then the updates should come later. I'm not sure exactly how the updates work now for those who are starting to play, as far as the sequence of the downloads, since I started before any new updates. From what I've heard, the updates still come through automatically, but some need to be triggered by playing some parts first (e.g. playing a Speed Racer game might trigger the 3.0 download, but I don't remember where I heard that so it might not be accurate). Then there might be some that only come after you put a Funkey in the hub (e.g. For the Funkiki Island update, we had to buy the right Funkeys first before the download came through), so I'm not sure if any of this info. will help. I hope someone might post a better answer before tomorrow. If not, please let us know what the Customer Support person says about this!

sounds like it takes longer to download when triggered so hopefully I never have to do it like that
