Well about the update process ... in any future release we will have a server a netPI can get in touch with a server to download the latest software automatically or triggered manually from this server in future. In this case there is no necessity any more for a USB stick. This is why it does not make sense today to include a USB media if it is not necessary in future. But basically I like the idea to prepare a USB media from the Control Panel so you do not have to do it manually.
In the forum you see that I have made tests with the media. Have a closer look here https://www.netiot.com/forum/?tx_typo3fo...52ae66708a
Of course this is no stat, but gives you a better feeling.
netPI is available to OEMs also with any SD card that have a demand for durability. We can change to any media since we use an SD card slot. But with Amazon netPI's (till january 2019) the card cannot be removed without destroying the device. The SD card we use has stat information, but we can't evalute the status today. Let me check with the manufacturer if we get source code to read it out.
