Supplier of DVD player firmware?

I've noticed more DVD players allow updating of firmware from a CD, however my player has a EEPROM (which I know cannot be flashed without EEPROM programmer)

I can get access to a EEPROM programmer.

Is there a company that sells up to date firmware for DVD players? My Sony is quite old, but I wouldn't mind replacing the chip with the final release of f/w.

I've got a couple of eeprom programmers sitting in front of me however the problem i can see is the removal of the chip.Does it unplug ? Or do you have another method of writing to it ?
 
Pretty sure the EEPROM is socketed type, ~32 pin.

The main problem is finding the HEX code for the firmware on the player (Sony DVP-S500D Region 1)

Or if I was to buy a replacement EEPROM with latest f/w- where to locate a supplier?
 
Let me know if you track down the hex, not that i could do anything with it as my programmers can only accomodate an 18 pin (or less) device.
